1. Proposed Workitem: Foreign Exam Management

  • Date: N/A (Wiki keeps history)
  • Version: N/A (Wiki keeps history)
  • Domain: Radiology

2. The Problem

The current Import Reconciliation Workflow Profile does not cover many of the use cases or feature functionality desired by customers:

- Import of prior exams (via pre-fetch 'pull' or 'push' or from removable media)

- Users often want 'priors' to be handled differently by an Image Manager/Archive

  • flushed from the system rather than archived
  • configurable behavior on the timing for this flushing that differs from normal workflow exams
  • flushing of foreign exam Study records from database rather than just deletion of image files/objects
  • requirements around when and when not a new exam order is needed for such a foreign study

3. Key Use Case

A White Paper on foreign exam management had been circulated in the XDS Implementation Group. This outlines a number of use cases and scenarios. Here is a link to that white paper:
