AI Medical Scribe for

Nuclear Medicine Physicians

Your day splits between dictating study reads and sitting with patients for radionuclide therapy — two workflows, two kinds of documentation. Medical Scribe drafts structured reports from your dictation and complete consult notes from the conversation.

Sample note

What your notes will look like

A real example of the documentation Medical Scribe generates for nuclear medicine physicians — ready as soon as you finish dictating.

Radioiodine Therapy Consult Ready to copy

Clinical History

34F with Graves' disease diagnosed 18 months ago, referred for radioiodine therapy after methimazole was stopped for hepatotoxicity (ALT 3x upper limit, resolved off drug). Symptomatic on propranolol 20mg three times daily: palpitations, heat intolerance, 5 kg weight loss. No thyroid eye disease on recent ophthalmology review. Negative pregnancy test today; not breastfeeding.

Examination & Uptake Data

HR 96, BP 128/76. Diffuse, smooth goiter approximately twice normal size, no nodules, no bruit. No proptosis or lid lag. Labs: TSH <0.01 mIU/L, free T4 2.8 ng/dL. I-123 uptake: 62% at 24 hours (elevated), diffuse homogeneous trapping on scan.

Assessment

Graves' hyperthyroidism, uncontrolled, with antithyroid drug intolerance — appropriate candidate for I-131 therapy. No contraindication: pregnancy excluded, no active orbitopathy, no suspicious nodules.

Counseling & Consent

Discussed expected outcome including likely permanent hypothyroidism requiring levothyroxine, typical response over 6-12 weeks, and small possibility of requiring a second treatment. Radiation safety instructions reviewed: sleep separately 5 nights, avoid close contact with children and pregnant women 7 days, no conception for 6 months, hydration and sialagogue guidance. Patient's questions about returning to work as a teacher answered. Written consent obtained.

Plan

  • Administer I-131 15 mCi (555 MBq) orally, scheduled next week
  • Continue propranolol 20mg TID; wean as symptoms resolve
  • TSH and free T4 at 6 weeks, then 3 months; start levothyroxine when hypothyroid
  • Written radiation safety instructions provided; contact number given for questions

Illustrative example. Every note is fully editable, and you control the format — SOAP, DAP, or your own custom template.

Nuclear medicine documents studies and patients

Reads with rigid structure

Every PET/CT, bone scan, and thyroid uptake report needs radiopharmaceutical, administered activity, technique, findings, and impression — dictated case after case, in the same exacting format.

Therapy counseling must be airtight

I-131 and Lu-177 therapies come with radiation safety instructions — isolation periods, contact restrictions, pregnancy precautions — that regulators and courts expect to see documented in detail.

Theranostics adds clinic time you didn't have

As therapy volumes grow, physicians trained for the reading room now run consult clinics too — histories, exams, eligibility reviews, and consent conversations, each needing a full clinical note.

AI-Powered Documentation

Real-time transcription that understands medical terminology and clinical context.

Specialty Vocabulary

Recognizes terms, conditions, and procedures specific to your practice area.

Save Hours Daily

Generate comprehensive clinical notes in minutes instead of hours.

HIPAA Compliant

Enterprise-grade encryption and security to protect sensitive data.

Two workflows, one scribe

In the reading room, dictate the study — tracer, activity, technique, findings, impression — and Medical Scribe drafts the structured report. In clinic, sit with the patient for a therapy consult or post-treatment review, and it drafts a full clinical note from the conversation. No re-typing in either direction; you review and sign both.

From uptake data to radiation safety instructions

Therapy notes capture what nuclear medicine actually documents: referral history and eligibility, examination and uptake results, the assessment, the counseling and consent discussion, and a plan with administered activity and follow-up labs. Build templates for your I-131, Lu-177 PSMA, and post-therapy imaging encounters in minutes, alongside 280+ built-in specialty formats.

Documentation that satisfies more than the chart

Nuclear medicine answers to radiation safety regulation as well as clinical standards. A record showing exactly which precautions were explained — isolation nights, contact restrictions, conception advice — protects you, your department, and your license. Medical Scribe documents only what was said in the room, and nothing is finalized without your signature.

Frequently asked questions

Half my day is dictating scan reports, not seeing patients. Does this help there too?

Yes. Medical Scribe records spoken dictation and drafts a structured report from it — you can build a custom template in minutes matching your report anatomy (radiopharmaceutical and administered activity, technique, findings, impression) for each study type, from FDG PET/CT to bone scans and thyroid uptakes.

Can it document radiation safety counseling for I-131 or Lu-177 therapy in the detail regulators expect?

The note captures the counseling conversation as it happened — isolation duration, contact restrictions, pregnancy precautions, and the patient's questions — giving you a defensible record that specific instructions were given. It never invents anything that wasn't said.

Will it handle nuclear medicine vocabulary — radiopharmaceuticals, activities in mCi and MBq, SUVs?

The note is generated from your actual words, including tracer names, administered activities, and quantitative values as you stated them. You review and edit every note or report before signing, so numbers can be verified before filing.

Is it secure enough for a hospital nuclear medicine department?

Yes. Medical Scribe is HIPAA compliant, with recordings and notes encrypted in transit and at rest. It runs on iOS, Android, Web, Apple Watch, and Mac, works for in-person and telehealth consults, and is free to get started.
