Minutes

Scheduled Worflow II: Reviewed the open issues in Chris Lindop's draft document with comments from Christoph Dickmann to expand discussion in preparation for creating revised version of profile.

  • Open Issues:

1. Image Manager/Image Archive Actor Grouping

  • Radiology Acquisition Workflow may be a better name for a new profile than SWF II
  • The question is whether to modify the way Image Manager and Image Archive are defined to either add transactions between them or possibly remove Image Archive from the profile
    • Transactions between Image Manager and Image Archive might be extensions of current DICOM transactions or non-DICOM (eg, HL7 or SQL)
  • Use Cases for Defining Behaviors Between Image Manager and Image Archive:
1. Enable "plug and play" interoperability so sites could easily add or replace archives
2. Allow replacement of Image Manager without migration/replacement of Archive
3. General purpose archive that could store reports and other medical documents as well as images
4. Federation of Archives: Does this use case belong in a workflow profile? Federation of Image Managers is probably not feasible.
5. Distance reading: single archive shared by multiple image managers

2. Define grouping and roles of Department System Scheduler and Order Filler

  • Enable scheduling to be managed by enterprise scheduling systems
  • Possibly define Department Workflow Manager with great scheduling capabilities than current DSS: ability to coordinate acquisition with post-processing and reporting, etc.
  • Currently the text does not include a clear definition of the roles of the DSS and OF actors
  • Perhaps rename current limited functionality as "procedure planning" rather than "scheduling"
  • Clarify or remove sections that refer to DSS independently

3. Reconcile ADT transactions with PAM and/or refactor and replace with references to PAM

  • Some required transactions in SWF are optional in PAM: possible to add Radiology-specific "extensions" (ie, constraints) to PAM?
  • Work through HL7 Task Force to map radiology requirements to PAM; develop appendix to be shared by ITI and Rad TFs describing relationship
  • Exclude ADT from Rad AWF
