Radiation Exposure Monitoring: REM and REM-NM Profile Tests
This section describes tests that are specific to the IHE Radiation Exposure Monitoring profiles: REM and REM-NM.
Dose Information Consumer Test 4400: REM Vendor Interoperability
Dose Information Consumers in the REM profile are required to support storage of DICOM Dose SR objects.
This test gives you access to sample DICOM SRs created by REM Acquisition Modalities prior to the current Connectathon. Modalities are asked to submit samples into gazelle 2-3 weeks prior to the Connectathon test deadline (or earlier). The goal is to avoid surprises on the Connectathon floor.
Instructions
- You will find these samples in gazelle under Connectathon -> List of Samples. Select your system name and look for the REM entry under Samples available for rendering to find sample REM Dose SRs.
- Your task is to test with these samples prior to the Connectathon.
Evaluation
- Create a short txt file indicating you have accessed these samples. List those that you have successfully tested with your Dose Information Consumer. If you encounter problems, contact the Project Manager who will help resolve them with Modality vendors. Upload that txt file into gazelle as the results for this test.
Dose Information Consumer Test 4404: Access REM Samples from Past Connectathons
We have been testing REM for several years, and we've collected sample Dose SRs from Modalities that have tested REM at various connectathons. To expand the number of samples you have to test with, we point you to this collection of SRs.
INSTRUCTIONS
- Access samples from past Connectathons stored here: ftp://ftp.ihe.net/Connectathon/samples/RAD-profiles/REM_samples/ Note that these samples are as they were submitted by the modality vendor. They may or may not pass validation.
- We encourage you to download them and test with them in your lab. At the Connectathon, you will be required to test with actual test partners, but we hope these samples provide for expanded testing opportunities.
EVALUATION
There is no log to upload for this test.
Dose Information Consumer Test 4410: REM-NM Vendor Interoperability
Dose Information Consumers in the REM-NM profile are required to support query/retrieve and storage of DICOM Radiopharmaceutical Radiation Dose Structured Report (RRDSR) objects.
This test gives you access to sample DICOM RRDSRs created by REM-NM Radiopharmaceutical Activity Supplier (RAS) systems prior to the current Connectathon. RASs are asked to submit samples into gazelle 2-3 weeks prior to the Connectathon test deadline (or earlier). The goal is to avoid surprises on the Connectathon floor.
Instructions
- You will find these samples in gazelle under Connectathon -> List of Samples. Select your system name and look for the REM-NM entry under Samples available for rendering to find sample REM-NM RRDSRs.
- Your task is to test with these samples prior to the Connectathon.
Evaluation
- Create a short txt file indicating you have accessed these samples. List those that you have successfully tested with your Dose Information Consumer. If you encounter problems, contact the Project Manager who will help resolve them with Modality vendors. Upload that txt file into gazelle as the results for this test.
