Ultrasound report in English and Spanish for foreign patients

A foreign pregnant patient living in Brazil, a Brazilian who will give birth abroad, a tourist who needed an emergency study, a patient who will continue treatment in another country. They all leave the clinic with the same request: the report in English or Spanish.

The problem with manual translation

• It takes time, and the report is ready later.
• Automatic translators get the terminology wrong ("vesícula" becomes "vesicle", "colo" becomes "neck").
• Measurements, units and classifications can be changed by accident.
• It leaves a second document to maintain: if the original report is corrected, the translation becomes outdated.

The report is born in the other language

In Laudário, the structured report is built from the fields the physician checks. Because each sentence comes from a template, the system has a version of each sentence in Portuguese, English and Spanish, written with the terminology of each language. Just switch the report language:

• The same measurements and the same findings.
• The same structure and the same conclusion.
• The technical terms used in reports in that language, not a literal translation.

Where this comes up most

• Obstetrics: foreign pregnant patients and couples who will give birth abroad take the report to the obstetrician there.
• Tourist and border cities: emergency studies in visitors.
• Second opinions abroad.

Precautions

• Review the report in the final language before releasing it, like any report.
• References and curves cited in the report are the same as in the Portuguese version.
