Abstract:
Hand-written or manually typed operation reports which are still in use in most hospitals are no longer sufficient to handle the ever-increasing amount of reports that need to be processed. We developed a thesaurus for general surgery to be used within the speech-recognition system ISSS (IBM Speech Server Series). From dictation in the operation theatre, the operation report will be generated simultaneously in its written form using a fast PC as interface.
