EndoExtract: Co-Designing Structured Text Extraction from Endometriosis Ultrasound Reports
EndoExtract is an LLM system co-designed with research assistants to extract structured data from unstructured endometriosis ultrasound reports, addressing workflow pain points by prioritizing human review of interpretive fields and highlighting source evidence.

The paper studies how to extract structured, interpretable data from unstructured free-text endometriosis ultrasound reports to support downstream analytics, machine learning training, and clinical auditing. Using contextual inquiry with research assistants, the authors identify workflow pain points including asymmetrical trust between numerical and interpretive fields, repetitive manual highlighting and fatigue from sustained comparison, and terminology inconsistency across radiologists; these findings inform EndoExtract, an on-premise LLM-powered system that automatically highlights evidence in PDFs and separates batch extraction from mandatory human-paced verification of interpretive fields. In a formative workshop, participants reported that the tool shifts work from field-by-field entry to supervisory validation, while noting risks of over-skimming and challenges handling missing data. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — it proposes and evaluates EndoExtract for structuring data from endometriosis ultrasound reports.
