Figure 4

The Reporter Bean (top-left) is launched from the EPR Browser. Each report is configured to the particular exam in question, here the left coronary artery. The user clicks on the resultant image map (SVG encoded) to initiate a reportlet page from a menu of context-sensitive reportlets. Here, the user chose to report on Arteriosclerosis for the vessel labeled IVA II. A reportlet (bottom) for Arteriosclerosis then appears and allows the medics to graphically specify the clinical signs appropriate for their patient. As is shown, the interface is constructed from sliders, pull-down text menus and pop-up image menus; there is no way to hand type information. The colored part of the menu-bar is a decision support aid that dynamically indicates the type of lesion, based on the evidence accumulated in the report. In this case the simple voting heuristic implemented indicates that a type B lesion is the most likely interpretation. The next figure illustrates the mechanism underlying each reportlet
