Providers typically describe the multimedia findings in contemporaneous electronic health record clinical notes or associate a textual interpretative report. Visual communication aids commonly used to connect, synthesize, and supplement multimedia and descriptive text outside medicine remain technically challenging to integrate into patient care. Such beneficial interactive elements may include hyperlinks between text, multimedia elements, alphanumeric and geometric annotations, tables, graphs, timelines, diagrams, anatomic maps, and hyperlinks to external educational references that patients or provider consumers may find valuable. This HIMSS-SIIM Enterprise Imaging Community workgroup white paper outlines the current and desired clinical future state of interactive multimedia reporting (IMR). The workgroup adopted a consensus definition of IMR as “interactive medical documentation that combines clinical images, videos, sound, imaging metadata, and/or image annotations with text, typographic emphases, tables, graphs, event timelines, anatomic maps, hyperlinks, and/or educational resources to optimize communication between medical professionals, and between medical professionals and their patients.” This white paper also serves as a precursor for future efforts toward solving technical issues impeding routine interactive multimedia report creation and ingestion into electronic health records.Pages 495-52228 page(s)application/pdfenCreative Commons Attribution 4.0 InternationalRadiology, Nuclear Medicine & Medical ImagingEnterprise imagingMultimediaReportingInteroperabilityHIT standardsRADIOLOGY-REPORTSREFERRING PHYSICIANSPOLICY STATEMENTPATHOLOGY REPORTDATA ELEMENTSQUALITYCANCERSTANDARDIZATIONRECOMMENDATIONSANALYTICSBiomedical ImagingNetworking and Information Technology R&DHumansDiagnostic ImagingConsensusRadiologyMultimediaRadiology Information SystemsArticle - Refereed2022-08-17https://doi.org/10.1007/s10278-021-00450-5343341317931618-727X
