Abstract
Use of free text reporting was associated with extensive variability in report length and report terms used. Interpretation of the free text was a difficult machine learning task and suggests potential difficulty for human recipients in fully understanding such reports. These results support the prospective assessment of the impact of a fully structured report template with at least some mandatory discrete fields on ease of use of reports and their understanding.
