Nuance @ SIIM19: Radiologists See Cloud-Based Diagnostic Solutions, Workflow-Integrated AI as Key Priorities for Care Teams
June 25 2019 - 8:00AM
At the Society for Imaging and Informatics in Medicine (SIIM)
Annual Meeting in Aurora, CO, June 26-29, 2019 (Booth #510), Nuance
Communications, Inc. (NASDAQ: NUAN), an industry-leading provider
of AI-powered solutions, announced recognition of Nuance’s
diagnostic solutions by leading radiologists in a newly released
report by Porter Research, “How AI is advancing the impact of
radiology in healthcare.” The report analyzes and prioritizes
radiologists’ current challenges and goals, and their plans for
using AI technologies to enhance workflows, better integrate
radiologists with care teams, improve patient outcomes and address
physician burnout.
In detailed interviews conducted by Porter Research, U.S.
radiologists identified the importance of integrating AI within
workflows and the power and flexibility of cloud-based solutions,
such as PowerScribe One and the AI Marketplace for Diagnostic
Imaging, as keys to enabling the next generation of data-driven
radiology. During the interviews, radiologists underscored
the value of harnessing these technologies and their importance as
influential drivers in advancing the industry.
“With the paradigm changing in radiology, our tools must also
change so we can empower radiologists to provide more effective
care in the most efficient way,” said Tarik Alkasab, MD,
Massachusetts General Hospital. “Nuance’s PowerScribe One can help
radiologists move to the next phase of data-oriented radiology
where we will be able to work so much smarter and deliver so much
more value to our referring providers and our patients.”
“The ability to have higher-level logic in the radiology report
template is critical for the next generation of speech recognition,
as it helps to drive the use of the clinical guidance, and
streamline discrete data capture,” said Marc Kohli, MD, University
of California, San Francisco.
At booth #510 at SIIM19, Nuance will provide demonstrations of
game-changing solutions in its diagnostic solution portfolio
including:
- PowerScribe One: The next generation of the industry’s most
widely used radiology reporting platform. It harnesses Nuance’s
advanced natural language understanding capabilities, cloud
technology, and workflow-integrated access to artificial
intelligence-powered diagnostic and decision-support tools from
dozens of developers on the AI Marketplace for Diagnostic
Imaging
- PowerShare: The largest and fastest-growing image-sharing
network with more than a million studies per month shared across
6,000 facilities
- mPower: The cloud-based solution combines rapid access to data
within radiology reports with powerful analytical tools for

actionable insights
“Two out of three radiologists in this country rely on our
reporting technology and are now leveraging it for the practical
and scalable adoption of AI,” said Karen Holzberger, vice president
and general manager Diagnostics, Nuance Communications. “Our
product development teams are using direct input from radiologists
to continuously enhance our platforms with new features and
technologies that elevate and advance the practice of radiology
today and in the future. We’re focused on specific solutions to
eliminate inefficiencies, improve costs and patient outcomes, and
empower radiologists as key players on care teams.”
