Abstract

Results of hematological examination from a laboratory are presented in the form of medical abbreviations and numbers alongside their units, which are represented in tabular form. The result of laboratory examination is not provided with explanation text on whether the blood components of the hematologic examination results are normal, abnormal or critical. In order to analyze the blood components of a hematological examination, a physician should manually compare each blood component value with the known normal range of values available. In this research Natural Language Generation (NLG) with a template-based method is employed to interpret the results of the patient’s hematology laboratory examination. The result of interpretation is written into a summary text in Bahasa Indonesia. Evaluation of the naturalness of the summary text obtained from the system performed by general practitioners and young doctors reported higher percentage interval of 93.1% to 97.5%.
