- Agree that we need to narrow down the scope to bring the effort required to a manageable size
- This profile will focus on three questions:
- Without any prior order (i.e. not managed acquisition), how to reliably get the encounter information delivered to the modality?
- What are the set of mandatory metadata for the captured images so that it can facilitate post-acquisition activities?
- What method(s) should be used to assemble the metadata and image data into something that downstream systems can readily consumer? (e.g. DICOM/XDS/FHIR/etc.)
Action item for next meeting:
- Brian Hart will lead storyboard discussion on Friday to focus on persona
- Dawn and Kinson will extract the pain points of current practice identified in the HIMSS/SIIM whitepaper
To be discussed on Friday:
- Possible breakout meeting at SIIM

- Nichole from RSNA has sent out a new meeting invite
- first meeting start on May 19
- Agree to try to meet at SIIM for a face-to-face discussion. Use doodle poll to indicate your availability
- Brian showed an example of using Design Thinking process to help guide identifying requirements for each persona
- Agree to try use the model at SIIM
- Agree to be mindful about how much time we spent
- Agree to keep the workflow design as an open general workflow, rather than focus on specific departmental need
- Will try to see if we can engage any specialist to help us on understanding their workflow and specific needs

- Identified 3 immediate use cases: (1) Point of care / bedside US, (2) Different kinds of scope devices used in operation room, and (3) camera / phone captured photos
- Identified that it is important to send notification back to EMR to close the loop when the data exists. Commonly use HL7 v2 messaging
- Identified that may be important to identify the source of the data, whether it is provider acquired, or submitted by patient
- Time may not be the reliable linkage information of images to context. E.g. multiple procedures happened simultaneously in the OR.
- matter for consumption E.g. use surgical video afterwards
- context is important for follow-up, not immediate assumption
- Consider grouping with ATNA and CT for authentication and consistent time. Specific enterprise authentication such as Active Directory will not be explicitly mentioned.
- Consider the holistic use case using the captured images for follow-up and other need, not only as evidence (e.g. for surgical procedure) and immediate consumption
