Structured Radiology Report Composer
Convert imaging observations into ACR-compliant structured radiology reports
What You Can Do
You can convert imaging observations and clinical context into complete, structured radiology reports that meet ACR standards for documentation completeness and precision. The skill organizes findings by clinical significance, generates evidence-based differential diagnoses, structures impressions with proper clinical language, and ensures all critical elements are included to support clinical decision-making in high-volume reporting environments.
Features
Formats findings, impression, and recommendations according to American College of Radiology standards for legal and clinical compliance
Ranks findings by importance to ensure critical pathology is prominently featured and actionable
Develops clinically appropriate differential diagnoses based on imaging patterns and clinical context
Integrates findings from CT, MRI, X-ray, ultrasound, or fluoroscopy into unified, coherent narratives
Structures prior vs. current comparison with appropriate language for stability, progression, or resolution
Identifies missing critical elements (recommendations, follow-up, incidental findings) before sign-out
Maintains standardized language and formatting aligned with departmental protocols
Uses clinically appropriate, defensible terminology that avoids ambiguity and supports patient care continuity
Example Output
Input: CT chest findings: right upper lobe 8mm nodule, new since 2020; mild bronchiectasis; no pleural effusion or lymphadenopathy
Output: FINDINGS: Right upper lobe 8 mm noncalcified nodule (axial image 45), new compared to prior study from [date]. Mild bronchiectasis of bilateral lower lobes, unchanged. No pleural effusion. No focal consolidation. Mediastinal and hilar lymph nodes are within normal limits by size criteria.
IMPRESSION: 1. New 8 mm right upper lobe noncalcified pulmonary nodule. 2. Mild bronchiectasis, stable.
RECOMMENDATION: Follow-up CT chest without contrast in 3 months per Fleischner Society guidelines for nodules 6-8 mm in low-risk patients.
Input: Ultrasound abdomen observations: gallbladder 3.2 cm, no stones, wall thickness normal; liver echotexture normal; no ascites; spleen 11 cm
Output: FINDINGS: The gallbladder measures 3.2 cm in transverse diameter without evidence of cholelithiasis or wall thickening. The liver demonstrates normal echotexture without focal lesion. The spleen measures 11 cm in greatest dimension (upper limit normal). No ascites identified.
IMPRESSION: Unremarkable abdominal ultrasound.
RECOMMENDATION: No follow-up required.

You might also like
You conduct comprehensive pre-operative risk stratification using ASA classification, Revised Cardiac Risk Index (RCRI), and procedure-specific risk tools to quantify operative risk across physiologic systems. You systematically identify modifiable risk factors—anemia, hypertension, glucose dyscontrol, cardiac dysfunction—and implement targeted optimization protocols to reduce preventable complications. You generate objective, evidence-backed assessments that strengthen informed consent discussions, support case selection decisions, and create defensible documentation for shared decision-making with patients and surgical teams.

You'll systematically evaluate patient risk factors, stratify perioperative risk using evidence-based frameworks, and generate detailed anesthesia plans that address specific comorbidities and procedural requirements. This skill helps you synthesize complex patient data—medical history, physical exam findings, lab work, imaging, and medication profiles—into actionable risk mitigation strategies that optimize patient safety and guide technique selection, drug choices, and monitoring protocols.

You can rapidly develop theoretically-grounded case formulations that integrate diagnostic findings, historical context, and clinical observations into a coherent narrative. The skill systematizes your conceptualization across multiple therapeutic modalities (CBT, psychodynamic, trauma-informed, systemic) and generates structured treatment plans with specific goals, interventions, and prognostic considerations—ideal for supervision presentations, case conferences, documentation, and complex diagnostic scenarios.

You can systematically document refraction findings for low vision patients and generate prescriptions optimized for specific functional tasks like reading, mobility, and facial recognition. The skill calculates appropriate magnification ratios, predicts realistic visual outcomes, and creates comprehensive documentation that prioritizes quality of life over distance acuity—transforming conventional refraction into patient-centered, task-driven prescriptions.

You can rapidly analyze multifaceted surgical presentations—including revision cases, comorbidities, and combined pathology—to develop defensible pre-operative plans and detailed operative notes. The skill synthesizes clinical findings with imaging data, stratifies surgical risk, selects technique-specific approaches, and produces documentation that withstands peer review and quality audits.

You can perform structured sports injury evaluations that incorporate mechanism-of-injury analysis, orthopedic special testing, functional movement screening, and clear referral criteria. The skill helps you differentiate soft tissue restrictions from joint dysfunctions, establish baseline function, and create evidence-based return-to-play milestones tailored to the athlete's sport and position. You'll generate documentation suitable for insurance records, team physician communication, and liability protection.

You can conduct comprehensive subluxation assessments on pediatric patients by integrating structural examination findings, functional limitations, parental observations, and neurological indicators within a developmental context. Claude helps you correlate specific subluxations to presenting complaints (colic, ear infections, torticollis, scoliosis patterns) and create objective documentation suitable for insurance, medical records, and referral purposes. You'll develop age-appropriate treatment plans that address both the subluxation and the child's unique physiological stage.

You can systematically generate ranked differential diagnoses for presenting complaints (chest pain, dyspnea, abdominal pain, headache, joint pain, fatigue) by applying evidence-based clinical decision rules and risk stratification. The skill helps you identify red flags that change management priority, justify test selection to supervising physicians, and document diagnostic reasoning in the medical record while reducing anchoring bias and ensuring comprehensive consideration of serious diagnoses.
