There are a variety of tools that provide the radiologist with decision support. These include online search tools and point of service tools, integrated into the radiology reporting process.

a. myRSNA is a radiology portal hosted by the RSNA. It offers a variety of services including a robust search function. One can bookmark references and even read some for CME credit online.

b. ARRS Goldminer offers a unique approach in searching. It has indexed the text of figure captions. It can search for terms included in the captions and brings back the figures, captions and articles they are included in.

c*. This figure is taken from the interface of a voice recognition dictation product. It embeds a “wizard” to search terms on the fly. The user interface provides a list of the internet sites it has available to search. Some of these may require the user to have an additional license.
