Abstract

A medical scan report labeling system is operable to transmit a medical report that includes natural language text to a first client device for display. Identified medical condition term data is received from the first client device in response. An alias mapping pair in a medical label alias database is identified by determining that a medical condition term of the alias mapping pair compares favorably to the identified medical condition term data. A medical code that corresponds to the alias mapping pair and a medical scan that corresponds to the medical report are transmitted to a second client device of an expert user for display, and accuracy data is received from the second client device in response. The medical code is mapped to the first medical scan in the medical scan database when the accuracy data indicates that the medical code compares favorably to the medical scan.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A medical scan report labeling system, comprising:
a medical scan database that includes a plurality of medical scans and a corresponding plurality of medical reports, wherein each of the plurality of medical reports includes natural language text data describing the corresponding one of the plurality of medical scans;
a medical label alias database that includes a plurality of alias mapping pairs, wherein each alias mapping pair includes a one of a plurality of medical condition terms and a corresponding one of a plurality of medical codes, wherein each of the plurality of medical condition terms in the plurality of alias mapping pairs are unique, and wherein each of the plurality of medical condition terms includes at least one word;
a processing system that includes a processor; and
a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processing system, facilitate performance of operations comprising:
transmitting, via a network, a first medical report in the plurality of medical reports to a first client device associated with a first user in a plurality of users of the medical scan report labeling system that is distinct from a medical professional that wrote the first medical report, wherein the natural language text data of the first medical report is displayed to the first user via a first interactive interface displayed by a first display device corresponding to the first client device;
receiving, from the first client device via the network, first identified medical condition term data for the first medical report indicating one or more words selected from the natural language text data of the first medical report via user input by the first user, wherein the first identified medical condition term data is generated by the first client device in response to a first prompt via the first interactive interface displayed by the first display device to identify a medical condition term based on the natural language text data of the first medical report;
identifying a first alias mapping pair of the plurality of alias mapping pairs in the medical label alias database based on determining a first medical condition term of the first alias mapping pair includes at least one word that matches at least one of the one or more words included in the first identified medical condition term data;
retrieving a first medical code of the plurality of medical codes that corresponds to the first alias mapping pair from the medical label alias database;
transmitting, via the network, the first medical code and a first medical scan in the plurality of medical scans that corresponds to the first medical report to a second client device associated with a second user that is different from the first user, wherein the first medical code and the first medical scan are displayed to the second user via a second interactive interface displayed by a second display device corresponding to the second client device;
receiving, via the network, first accuracy data from the second client device indicating whether the first medical code correctly corresponds to the first medical scan, wherein the first accuracy data is generated by the second client device based on user input via the second user in response to a second prompt displayed by the second display device via the second interactive interface to provide first accuracy data based on the first medical code and the first medical scan; and
mapping the first medical code to the first medical scan in the medical scan database based on the first accuracy data indicating that the first medical code correctly corresponds to the first medical scan.

2. The medical scan report labeling system of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of medical codes correspond to at least one of: SNOMED codes, Current Procedure Technology (CPT) codes, ICD-9 codes, or ICD-10 codes.

3. The medical scan report labeling system of claim 1 , wherein the operations further comprise:
receiving a corrected medical code from the second client device, wherein the corrected medical code is generated by the second client device in response to a third prompt displayed by the second display device via the second interactive interface to identify a corrected medical code, and wherein the third prompt is displayed in response to the first accuracy data indicating that the first medical code does not correctly correspond to the first medical scan; and
mapping the corrected medical code to the first medical scan in the medical scan database.

4. The medical scan report labeling system of claim 3 , wherein the operations further comprise:
transmitting the first medical report to the second client device for display to the second user via a second interactive interface;
receiving a new alias mapping pair from the second client device that includes the corrected medical code, wherein the new alias mapping pair is generated by the second client device in response to a fourth prompt displayed by the second display device via the second interactive interface to identify a new alias mapping pair based on the first medical report and the first medical scan, and wherein a new medical condition term of the new alias mapping pair is not included in the medical label alias database; and
adding the new alias mapping pair to the medical label alias database.

5. The medical scan report labeling system of claim 1 , wherein the first identified medical condition term data is generated by the first client device based on an identified segment of consecutive words included in the one or more words selected from the natural language text data of the first medical report.

6. The medical scan report labeling system of claim 1 , wherein the first identified medical condition term data is generated by the first client device based on an identified plurality of words included in the one or more words selected from the natural language text data of the first medical report, wherein at least two of the identified plurality of words are not consecutive words selected from the natural language text data of the first medical report.

7. The medical scan report labeling system of claim 1 , wherein the first identified medical condition term data is generated by the first client device based on a plurality of words, wherein at least one word in the plurality of words is not included in the natural language text data of the first medical report, and wherein the at least one word is based on one of: keyboard or voice input via the first interactive interface.

8. The medical scan report labeling system of claim 1 , wherein the first medical condition term of the first alias mapping pair and the first identified medical condition term data received from the first client device differ by at least one word.

9. The medical scan report labeling system of claim 1 , wherein the operations further comprise:
transmitting a second medical report in the plurality of medical reports to a third client device associated with a third user in a plurality of users of the medical scan report labeling system, wherein the natural language text data of the second medical report is displayed to the third user via a third interactive interface displayed by a third display device corresponding to the third client device;
receiving second identified medical condition term data from the third client device, wherein the second identified medical condition term data is generated by the third client device in response to a third prompt via the third interactive interface displayed by the third display device to identify a medical condition term based on the natural language text data;
transmitting the second medical report and a second medical scan of the plurality of medical
