“…Total conformance to the national reporting template of rectal cancer staging would mean 100% information completeness and would also contribute to the use of an agreed harmonized terminology. Information completeness, conformance to current standards, consistency, and clarity of communication are all considered key parameters in reporting quality (34,38). This is being confirmed by the template-based reporting of reporting style A, where almost all the findings mentioned in the template were accounted for in the reports in a consistent way.…”

“…Due to the risk that reports can contain errors and that descriptions of findings can be ambiguous and difficult to interpret on account of subjective reasoning and underlying meanings (12,(33)(34)(35)(36)(37), a computer-aided approach to content categorization has not been chosen for this study as it might reproduce any mistakes if they existed.…”

Background In 2014, a national workshop program was initiated and a reporting template and manual for rectal cancer primary staging using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was introduced and made available by the national Swedish Colorectal Cancer Registry. Purpose To evaluate the effect of the national template program by identify if there was a gap between the content in Swedish MRI reports from 2016 and the national reporting template from 2014. The aim was to explore and compare differences in content in reporting practice in different hospitals in relation to the national reporting template, with focus on: (i) identifying any implementational differences in reporting styles; and (ii) evaluating if reporting completeness vary based on such implementational differences. Material and Methods A total of 250 MRI reports from 10 hospitals in four healthcare regions in Sweden were collected. Reports were analyzed using qualitative content analysis with a deductive thematic coding scheme based on the national reporting template. Results Three different implemented reporting styles were identified with variations of content coverage in relation to the template: (i) standardized and structured protocol (reporting style A); (ii) standardized semi-structured free-text (reporting style B); and (iii) regular free-text (reporting style C). The relative completeness of reporting practice of rectal cancer staging in relation to the national reporting template were 92.9% for reporting style A, 77.5% for reporting style B, and 63.9% for reporting style C. Conclusion The implementation of template-based reporting according to reporting style A is a key factor to conform to evidence-based practice for rectal cancer reporting using MRI.

“…Despite technological and medical advancements, the slow adoption of structured reporting in clinical practice persists. 40 Due to the risk that reports can contain errors and that descriptions of findings can be ambiguous and difficult to interpret on account of subjective reasoning and underlying meanings, 17,[41][42][43][44][45] a computer-aided approach to content categorisation has not been chosen for this study as it might reproduce any mistakes if they existed. However, recent advances in deep learning using large language models (LLMs) have only scratched the surface of what that technology could be used for within healthcare, medicine, and research.…”

Background The radiology report is vital for providing imaging information to guide patient treatment, and template-based reporting can potentially increase the reporting completeness. In 2014, a national reporting template for radiological staging of rectal cancer using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was implemented in Sweden. Purpose To evaluate the impact of the national reporting template by comparing and analysing differences in content and completeness in MRI reports between 2010 and 2016. Focus was to compare reporting completeness (i) between different reporting years and (ii) between three defined reporting styles. Material and Methods 493 MRI reports were gathered from 10 hospitals in four healthcare regions in Sweden, comprising 243 reports from 2010 and 250 reports from 2016. Reports were classified into three reporting styles: Expanded structured, Minimised structured, and Unstructured, and analysed using qualitative content analysis based on the national template. Results In 2010, all reports adhered to Unstructured reporting. In 2016, 44, 42, and 164 reports were conformant to Expanded structured, Minimised structured, and Unstructured reporting, respectively. A comparison between the years revealed a reporting completeness of 48% for 2010 reports and 72% for 2016 reports. Among the 2016 reporting styles, Unstructured reporting had the largest gap compared to the national template, with completeness at 64% versus 77.5% for Minimised structured reporting and 93% for Expanded structured reporting. Conclusion Implementation of template-based reporting according to Expanded structure is key to conform to national decided evidence-based practice for radiological staging of rectal cancer.
