In PSMA PET/CT reporting, FTR consistently achieved higher ratings than template-based SR, with respect to overall report quality, clinical usefulness for management decisions, information retrieval, and linguistic quality. These findings underline that the performance of SR strongly depends on template design, implementation workflow, and local reporting expertise, and that SR tools require careful, indication-specific validation.
In 111 prostate-specific membrane antigen PET/CT reports from 42 U.S. institutions, there was substantial heterogeneity in length, content, structure, and readability as well as underutilization of standardized scoring systems and interpretation frameworks.
