Record typesLast updated: 2026-07-07

Imaging report preparation for outside review

Imaging report preparation keeps the report text, date, modality, body site, impression, and source file together. It should not replace the actual image files or interpret radiology findings beyond the source report.

Record handling notes

The record type is handled as source material. MedDossier keeps source context visible and avoids adding clinical interpretation.

Selection checklist

  • Keep the original file.
