Prototyping Semantic Dialogue Systems for Radiologists

Daniel Sonntag and Manuel Möller: “Prototyping Semantic Dialogue Systems for Radiologists”, Proc. of the 6th International Conference on Intelligent Environments (IE’2010), Monash University, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, 2010 [BibTex]

Abstract: We present a semantic dialogue  system  for radiologists. In the future, speech-based semantic image retrieval and  annotation  of medical  images  should  provide  the  basis  for help  in  clinical  decision  support  and  computer  aided  diagnosis. We  will  describe  today’s  clinical  workflow  and  interaction requirements and focus on the design and implementation of our prototype system for patient  image search and  image annotation while  using  a  speech-based  dialogue  shell  in  the  radiology environment.  Ontology modeling  provides  the  backbone  for knowledge  representation in  the  dialogue  shell  and  the  specific medical application domain.
