title: Structured reporting: coronary CT angiography: a white paper from the American College of Radiology and the North American Society for Cardiovascular Imaging.

Advantages include improved quality and consistency of the reporting and ease of data mining. The essential elements of a structured report are provided and illustrated for coronary artery computed tomographic angiograms.
