Reporting, filing, and retrieval of coronary angiographic findings: a new personal computer-based system

A software system for semiautomatic reporting and automatic filing of coronary angiographies has been developed and is suitable for an IBM Personal Computer (PC) with graphic tablet and printer. Coronary angiographic findings referring to the native anatomy, pathology, and post-surgical status can be easily recorded. The data is automatically coded and filed according to category of information. This system can analyze previously filed data and perform searches under one or more angiographic findings. This allows for a comparison of different series of patients.
