Three facilities — Cook Children’s Health Care System (Fort Worth, Texas), University of Florida Health Science Center Jacksonville (Fla.) and The University of Mississippi Medical Center (Jackson, Miss.) — have successfully implemented RadWhere, a radiology speech recognition solution from Burlington, Mass.-based Nuance Communications, Inc.

With the tool, radiologists can complete reports in real-time with free text speech recognition, standard site templates, and individual radiologist templates.
