PowerScribe for Pathology is a front-end speech recognition solution which is web-enabled and specifically designed for hands-free use at the grossing station and at the microscope resulting in more rapid and efficient dictation, report creation, and completion. PowerScribe for Pathology fully supports pathology department workflow by accommodating multi-sectioned reports, multiple authors per report and by uploading report sections one at a time or when an entire report is complete.

PowerScribe for Pathology unites a high-accuracy pathology language model – developed by analyzing hundreds of thousands of pathology reports – with ergonomically designed hands-free dictation tools. Pathologists control dictation using voice commands and a new USB-based headset and foot pedal, reducing the need to touch the keyboard and mouse. Voice-driven report navigation further facilitates hands-free workflow. This combination gives users flexibility when recording and listening to dictated voice files, and when navigating templates and report fields.

PowerScribe for Pathology’s web architecture fits today's “on demand” browser-based requirements, providing remote connectivity from multiple locations for dictation, review and signoff. Pathologists open a browser and connect to a web server to access their unique user profiles and speech files. The user interface is clear and easy-to-use, presenting all essential information in understandable windows and tabs.
