Description

We need a way to detect scanned forms which are not clinical images. Typically they contain a lot of text and, even though this is detected and redacted by OCR, there is a risk that some is handwritten (even signatures) and is not redacted.

During CR,DX analysis some rules were found

During MG analysis we discovered that it's not so easy to distinguish forms because of a lack of consistency. More investigation is required.

A ML model has been trained to detect scanned forms, but it will need to be retrained or finetuned on the new MG data.
