New NMD Exam Search Interactive Report

A new NMD Exam Search interactive report will display all NMD exam records submitted by the participant. The NMD Exam Search report provides an interface to search for and download a subset of NMD data elements submitted to the registry along with outcome measures for each exam, when available. 

Physician Group TIN Management

There is a new functionality on the Manage Physician Group TIN form that allows the user to export a list of TINs into an xlsx data file. The file can be updated and then uploaded back into the system. This should help corporate accounts with a large amount of TINs perform bulk updates.

User Interface Design Change - Continues with CDSR, Assess-AI and LI-RADS

The NRDR platform is undergoing a gradual change to the user interface design.  This is being rolled-out on an individual registry basis and will ultimately complete with a change to the cross-registry pages.  The 3D Printing and DIR registries have already made this transition.  In NRDR 13.15, the user interface will be updated in CDSR, Assess-AI and LI-RADS registries.  User functionality will not change.
