Frequently asked questions
Can I customize the wording of voice commands?
Yes. You can use substitutions to replace one spoken word or phrase with another before voice commands are processed. This allows you to create shorter or more natural phrases for supported commands.
For example, you could create a substitution that replaces “stamp” with “template,” allowing you to say “Stamp chest x-ray” instead of “Template chest x-ray.”
Learn more about using substitutions.
I previously used Fluency. What are the differences between the voice commands used in Fluency and those in Rad AI Reporting?
Some voice commands are identical, some are similar, and some Fluency commands are not supported in Rad AI Reporting. See Voice command reference for previous Fluency users for details.
