  • Have all significant issues at Connectathon been dealt with?
The issue at Connectathon has been getting Modality vendors to test. I checked back on NA and EU Connectathons back to 2010 (those are the years where we can examine actual results on Gazelle Test Management vs. the CAT Results DB). In that time, we have not had a NM Modality participate in a CAT
  • Has the Connectathon Project Manager been queried and significant issues addressed?
see above

Technical Committee Consensus

  • TBD

Planning Committee Checklist

  • Has the profile been through a Connectathon in at least two regions?

EU CAT

    • 2010 - Philips registered as ID with Cardiac NM option - no partner

    • 2012 - Philips registered as ID with Cardiac NM option and *passed* the test instance for this option using test data from DICOM Central Archive https://gazelle.ihe.net/EU-CAT/test.seam?id=147 (i.e. no "live" partner)
    • 2013 - 2021- no registration for this option

  • No, all testing was with the same product
  • Have all the options been tested successfully at at least one Connectathon?
  • NA (this is an option)
  • Are there IHE-provided software testing tools to address all aspects of the profile?
  • EVS DICOM validators
  • Have the standards underlying the profile been implemented? In similar use cases? In healthcare? In general IT?
