A 2015 survey indicates that burnout of radiologists was seventh highest among all physicians. In this work, two neural networks are designed and trained to generate text-based first read radiology reports. Existing tools are leveraged to perform registration and then brain tumour segmentation. Feature vectors are constructed utilising the information extracted from the segmentation masks. These feature vectors are fed to the neural networks to train against a radiologist’s reports on fifty subjects. The neural networks along with image statistics are able to characterise tumour type, mass effect and edema and report tumour volumetry; compiled as a first-read radiology report.
