Mobile Radiologist

The PowerScribe Mobile Radiologist app provides radiologists with secure access to reporting workflows when they are away from a dedicated reading workstation. The app allows you to create, review, edit, and sign reports directly from a mobile device, helping you stay productive while working remotely or on the move.

Note

Some features available on a desktop workstation may not be available in the mobile app.

After installation, the PowerScribe Mobile Radiologist icon appears on your mobile device.
