Abstract Kurzweil Applied Intelligence received a research grant from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Advanced Technology Program to develop a prototype voice-enabled, structured medical reporting system. In typical usage, the physician dictates to the system, which then uses automatic speech recognition and medical knowledge bases to produce a structured report. This report can then be formatted and viewed on a computer screen, stored in databases of patient information, transmitted to other systems, used to support outcome studies, or viewed on a Web browser. The output reports are structured according to two standard, platform-independent formats: SGML and CORBA. These formats represent the data in a way that can be read by both computers and humans, and efficiently communicated to a wide range of databases and communications protocols.
