Radiology reports remain the primary mechanism by which imaging findings are communicated to clinical teams. However, much of the structured information behind these reports, including measurements, image evidence, prior comparisons, lesion identity, uncertainty, and terminology, often remains trapped in free text or fragmented across picture archiving and communication systems, radiology information systems, reporting workstations, worksheets, advanced visualization tools, and electronic health records. This paper proposes a human-supervised, evidence-linked reference architecture for structured radiology reporting. The framework combines exam-specific templates, speech-to-structure processing, measurement and segmentation capture, controlled AI-assisted drafting, and standards-based interoperability using DICOM, DICOM Structured Reporting, DICOM Segmentation, HL7 FHIR, RadLex, SNOMED CT, LOINC, and UCUM. The system is positioned not as an autonomous report generator, but as a structured intelligence layer for enterprise imaging that supports reviewed reporting, longitudinal comparison, clinical data reuse, governance, and integration with PACS, RIS, EHR, analytics, and registry workflows. The paper also discusses modality-specific deployment considerations, clinical safety risks, validation requirements, cybersecurity, privacy, quality management, and regulatory boundaries for AI-assisted radiology reporting systems.
