    • Due to the high effort of the EP Report Content Profile, it was suggested to make the EP Report Content a profile that extends over two years.
    • Intermediate deliverables for the first year need to be defined and communicated to the Planning Committee/HRS.
    • The work item would benefit from additional resources
  • Intravascular Imaging Profile
    • Since IHE-J will mainly work on this, it is low effort and will be handled under the Technical Framework Maintenance topic in the Technical Committee.
