Abstract

This paper presents a review of the necessary technology in order to develop a Vocal User interface to be integrated into the jMRUI. jMRUI allows magnetic resonance (MR) spectroscopists to easily perform time-domain analysis of in vivo MR Data and might in the future be used during intraoperative MRI scanning. An operation room with an MRI scanner is a highly noisy environment which degrades speech recognition. These specific circumstances must be taken in consideration and are described in this paper along with the structure of the vocal interface.
