Gazelle Browsing

Introduction

IHE has adopted the use of Gazelle Master Model (GMM) for managing IHE Actors and Transactions. New or updated actors and transactions are added to GMM once the profile that introduced them reaches Trial Implementation status. The GMM contains IHE Technical Framework concepts (e.g., Profiles, Actors, Transactions, Options) and is the test repository for IHE Connectathons. (The contents of GMM are automatically synchronized with the NA and EU instances of Gazelle Test Management.) The Gazelle "Browsing" function allows users to search for these concepts based on various search criteria. Gazelle Test Management instances are found at:

• Gazelle Test Management for NA Connectathons: https://gazelle.iheusa.org/gazelle-na/home.seam
• Gazelle Test Management for EU Connectathons: https://gazelle.ihe.net/EU-CAT/home.seam

Please Note: A Gazelle account IS NOT required for Gazelle Browsing.

Profile Browsing

Gazelle is populated with IHE Profiles across all domains. A list of Profiles per IHE domain can be obtained browsing for Integration Profiles in Gazelle.

Access GMM Integration Profile Browsing at

• Gazelle Test Management for NA Connectathons: https://gazelle.iheusa.org/gazelle-na/home.seam

or

• Gazelle Test Management for EU Connectathons: https://gazelle.ihe.net/EU-CAT/home.seam

Then:

1. From the main menu (at the top left of the page), select TF->Integration Profile Browsing.
2. From the Domain drop-down list (at the top center of the page), select the domain of interest (or enter the Profile name or keyword where prompted).

Actor Browsing

Gazelle is populated with actors from IHE Profiles across all domains. Prior to creating a new actor for an IHE Profile, search the list of existing actors to see if it (or a suitable one) already exists. For example, a Content Consumer or Acquisition Modality actor is used by many IHE Profiles.
