Cross-enterprise Document Sharing for Imaging

Summary

The Cross-Enterprise Document Sharing for Imaging (XDS-I) Profile provides a solution for sharing (publishing, finding and retrieving) imaging documents across a group of affiliated enterprises. Imaging documents include the following:-Imaging studies that include images acquired on a broad range of different modalities, as well as evidence documents (e.g. post-processing measurements/analysis outcome), and presentation states; -Diagnostic reports resulting from the interpretation of one or more related imaging studies provided in a ready-for-display form; -A selection of diagnostically significant images associated with the report content.

<See Help - Tips and Tricks for details on inserting an image/graphic.>

Benefits

XDS-I enables imaging information to be shared in a community or region by allowing radiology departments, private physicians, clinics, long term care, acute care with different clinical IT systems to contribute and access (query and retrieve) imaging documents (images and reports) of interest.
