Abstract
Various systems and methods are provided for automatically generating a radiology report. A medical image of a region of interest of a subject may be received. A structure of the region of interest of the subject may be segmented using a segmentation model and classified using a classification model. The medical imaging including the classified structure may be displayed via a user device of a radiologist. Speech data of the radiologist related to the classified structure may be received from the user device. Text data corresponding to the speech data may be generated using a natural language processing model. A radiology report corresponding to the medical image may be generated in a predetermined format using an artificial intelligence model. The radiology report including the medical image and an annotation including the generated text data in relation to the classified structure may be displayed via the user device of the radiologist.
