Cross-enterprise Document Sharing for Imaging

Summary

<Describe the profile in about a paragraph using user-oriented language.>

<Insert a simple graphic that, at a glance, gives an impression of what the profile is about. E.g. a graphic of a hospital, a clinic, and a lab with patient records moving between them. Do not use an actor/transaction diagram here.>

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

Benefits

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.
