CONSIDER...technology that contains the following capabilities,which can mitigate the need for added stepsfor the radiologist
MULTIMEDIA-ENHANCED
RADIOLOGYREPORTING
PROCEDURE: CT Abdomen with contrast
CLINICAL INDICATION: Liver metastases (unknown primary tumor).
TECHNIQUE: CT scan of the abdomen with and without contrast was performed ont he volumetric 64 sliceCT scanner. The patient was scanned following the uncomplicated intravenous administration of 100 cc ofOmnipaque 300. 3-D coronal reformatted images were obtained from the axial source images.
COMPARISON: None
FINDINGS: The lung bases are clear. The heart size is normal, without pericardial thickening or effusion.There are several hypodense lesions on both lobes of the liver the largest with a diameter of 54.00 mm thatrepresent liver metastasis from unknown origin most probably.The spleen is normal in size and homogeneous in density. The stomach is partially collapsed, but is grosslyunremarkable. The pancreas as visualized is normal. The gallbladder and biliary tree are unremarkable andthere is no evidence for biliary dilatation. The adrenal glands are symmetric and normal.The kidneys are symmetrically unremarkable as well. The collecting system on the right is enlarged.The aorta is of normal caliber. Aortic calci�cations are present. There is no retroperitoneallymphadenopathy. The porta hepatis region is clear. The bowel and mesentery, as visualized, are equallyunremarkable.S/P total left hip replacement.The surrounding osseous structures are remarkable for mild degenerative spondylosis of the spine. Mildscoliosis of the lumbar spine No osteolytic or osteoblastic lesion is detected.
IMPRESSION:1. Several liver metastasis on both lobes from unknown origin.2. S/P total left hip replacement

PROCEDURE: CT chest with contrast
REASON FOR EXAM: Female, 59 years old. Congestion and a left upper lobe in�ltrate.
RADIATION DOSAGE: (if Supplied by Facility): CTDlvol=(30.34) mGy, DLP=(523.87) mGycm.
TECHNIQUE: High resolution transaxial imaging was preformed following intravenous administration of 100ml ofIsovue 300 contrast material. Multi planar coronal and sagittal images were reformatted.
COMPARISON: Prior CT scan 02/20/13 and radiographs 02/26/13
believe that using MERR, they would be more likely to provide patients access to both text reports and images.

MERR IS NOT WITHOUT ITS CONCERNS
Compared with text-only reports, most physicians (57%) reported that MERR would be of more value for studies with signi�cant positive �ndings.
More than half of physicians (53%) reported that MERR would be more valuable than text-only reports for conditions that require follow-up and monitoring of the progressionof a disease over a period of time.
28% of physicians said they had concerns about MERR implementation
