About

The OnePacs Cloud Report Generator is a purely web-based structured reporting and voice recognition solution within the OnePacs platform.  This product integrates the functionality of the OnePacs Report Generator and Voice Recognition into a simple reporting tool that does not require installation of software.

Accessing the Cloud Report Editor from the Worklist

Clicking on the "Enter report" icon on the worklist will launch the configured report editor (Cloud Report Editor by default).  See User Preferences to change this setting. 

To access the Cloud Report Editor directly from the worklist, right-click on a study and select Reporting → Cloud Report Editor.

Quick Reference Guide

For an overview of basic functionality of the OnePacs Cloud Report Generator/Editor, you can click on the Quick Reference Guide icon within the application. 

Editing Modes

Users may switch between structured report and pure text editing modes using the toggle buttons.

Basic (Text) Mode

In basic mode the user may type or dictate report text directly into the report editor.  Standard reporting texts and reporting tokens are also available.

Variable Navigation

Variables may be designated in report text using square brackets ("[" and "]").  Users may navigate variables with voice commands or key shortcuts.

Advanced Mode

In advanced mode the user will simply enter study findings which will be automatically inserted into the selected report template.  A preview of the report is updated in real time.  Users may use keywords to control the behavior of findings insertion.  Please see the in-app documentation for more information.

For more detailed information about advanced features such as creating templates in the OnePacs Report Generator see https://wiki.onepacsforums.com/doku.php?id=rg:org

Impression Generator

The OnePACS Impression Generator feature offers radiologists AI assistance with writing impression sections. In our experience to date, it helps radiologists write better impressions, while also saving 15% on total reporting time. For more details please refer to the dedicated Report Generator documentation here.

Automatic Token Updating

Report editor tokens are automatically updated on the screen as information is updated.  For example, if patient history is added to a study after the reporting window is opened, it will automatically update both on in the information panel at the top of the screen and in the report text if the appropriate token is used.  Report editor tokens are highlighted yellow.

Report Generator

OnePacs Report Generator functionality is available in both basic and advanced editing modes. 

In basic mode, the user may enter findings on individual lines in the text editor.  These findings may be applied to the selected template by pressing the "Generate Report" button.

In advanced mode, the findings entered are automatically applied to the report generator template selected and a preview is updated in real time.

Preferences

Reporting preferences are available in the Reporting tab of the User Preferences.

Preview ImagesIndicates the number of image thumbnails to show per series on the left side of the reporting window.
Open report entry window on primary monitorCheck to indicate that reporting windows should be opened on the primary monitor rather than the window the editor is launched from.
Enable keyboard shortcutsCheck to enable keyboard shortcuts
Listen for keyboard shortcuts when in the backgroundWhen this option is enabled, the Cloud Report Editor will listen for key shortcuts while in the background.  Requires OnePacs Study Retriever version 13.0 or later.
Default skip durationWhen a study is skipped without designating a duration, use this default duration.
Reporting ModeIndicate which editing mode to default to, based on requested read type (ie prelim or final).  Optionally, pre-load the basic (text) editor with the content of the selected RG template or standard report text.
Hide shared standard report textHide standard report texts that are authored by other users.  This is useful for radiologists that want to exclusively ymanage their standard report texts and not use the group shared standards.
Delay finalizing reportThis option allows the radiologist to click the "Complete" or "To Proofread" button to invoke a countdown timer that delays finalizing the report for the specified number of seconds.  This allows the author to return to the report and make changes prior to finalization up until the timer expires.

Desktop Viewer Integration

If using a desktop viewer connected via the OnePacs Study Retriever, ensure that you are running version 10.2 or later.  Version 13 or later is required for background key shortcut support.

OnePacs Voice Recognition

OnePacs offers integrated voice recognition with its cloud-based reporting solution.  A modern browser such as FireFox, Chrome or Edge is required.  This feature is available on mac OS and Microsoft Windows.

When using OnePacs Voice Recognition (OPVR) with the Cloud Report Editor, it is important to use a professional-caliber microphone, such as a Philips SpeechMike, and to ensure that the correct microphone is selected in the web browser. For example, it is possible for a professional-quality microphone to be installed on a computer, but for the web browser to capture and use a different device, such as a built-in microphone for laptop systems, which will degrade performance.

On Chrome, selection of the correct microphone can be performed, or confirmed, by clicking on the small icon of a video camera in the upper right hand corner of the web browser URL address bar:

On Microsoft Windows systems, the microphone should be calibrated before use: How to set up and test microphones in Windows 10.

Within the Cloud Report Editor, when the microphone is active you may hover over the microphone icon to view the input device currently in use.  Ensure that the expected device is selected.

Tabular Reporting

When multiple studies are locked for reporting in the Cloud Report Editor, a tab panel will appear at the top of the screen.  Each tab represents a study that is locked for reporting by the current user.  All content below the tabs is specific to the selected tab/study.  The selected tab/study will have a pulsing dot to indicate that it is the currently active case.


When using the report completion timer, typically used in conjunction with the "next case" feature, a tab will remain present and display the remaining time until report completion. 

The user may click on the inactive tab pending completion and manually complete the report now or cancel report completion.


Notes/Flags/Study Files

Study notes, flags and study files are available on the top right side of the screen.
