Abstract
A method for generating sentences of text for selected medical findings in an electronic medical diagnostic system is disclosed. First, a descriptive phrase for each medical finding is created. Each descriptive phrase is then analyzed to determine possible truncation points for modifying the descriptive phrase of one medical finding if another medical finding is also selected. A code at each possible truncation point is then entered into the phrase. Language to be inserted at each of the truncation points is then created and the descriptive phrase and modifying language are stored. Finally, the stored descriptive phrases and modifying language are then combined to form a readable text for the medical findings selected from the database.
