Automatically generate patient-friendly radiology reports within your existing patient portal.
Provide custom educational content developed by radiologists, embedded throughout every report.
Deliver a novel, patient-centered experience with interactive reports and plain language explanations.
Our software analyzes the text of a standard radiology report, translates the medical terms into plain language, and then displays the report in a patient-focused, interactive webpage format.
Patients simply click on medical terms and phrases to show a patient-centered explanation in plain language, right alongside the report.
Scanslated provides plain language explanations and diagrams to help patients understand complex medical terminology. Our customized educational content appears right alongside radiology reports within a simple, modern interface.
Your patients will have access to a cutting edge report-viewing experience, with radiology reports presented in a patient-centered, interactive format that’s the first of its kind. Our intuitive, patient-focused interface and report display increases patient engagement, comprehension, and overall satisfaction with the radiology experience.
What’s more, our software integrates seamlessly into your existing workflow, minimizing the need for staff training typically associated with the adoption of new technology.
