....not only by the features of the image, but also by the unstated assumptions of the radiologist regarding whether statements about various image features are relevant to the management of the patient. Two reported systems which address automatic classification of chest radiograph reports are SPRUS [HRF89] and RadTRAC [ZL93] SPRUS was developed as part of the HELP system. Target concepts (pneumonia and congestive cardiac failure) are represented by frame structures. In essence, frame slots for a given concept are filled by searching for pre specified keywords in the text of the report. RadTRAC is ....

.... A number of natural language processing (NLP) systems have been developed in the medical domain and utilized for clinical applications that require structured clinical data, such as decision support, quality assurance, and patient management [512 ] Some of these systems have been evaluated [5,6,8,9,13 15] although with varying degrees of generalizability. Other NLP applications that have also been reported are intended to be used for other types of applications, such as automated encoding [1518 ] literature indexing and search [19 21] and vocabulary development [22 24] There are several ....
....used to resolve the differences when they did occur. Additionally, the experts themselves did not independently generate information from the text by manual analysis but validated the information that was generated by the system. The evaluation of another NLP system called SPRUS was reported in [6]. SPRUS was developed to encode specific information from radiology reports at Latter Day Saints hospital (LDS) so that the data could be used for decision support modules. SPRUS depended on a semantic model consisting of a set of diseases associated with chest radiographs, such as pneumonia. The ....
