MESA/Test Cases/Radiology

Introduction

The MESA tests include a number of cases each of which rely on a sequence of messages between actors. These tests range across different integration profiles:

1. Scheduled Patient Workflow
2. Patient Information Reconciliation
3. Presentation of Grouped Procedures
4. Charge Posting
5. Postprocessing Workflow
6. Reporting Workflow

This document lists the transactions and messages for a number of cases. It may not describe the clinical scenario behind each case, but listing the transactions should clearly define what is expected of each actor. These are all of the transactions involving all of the actors. When you test with your particular actor, you may see only a subset of these messages.

Some of the messages need to appear in the order listed in this document. For example, patient registration must precede order messages. In other instances, some messages may appear in a slightly different sequence. Our document typically lists MPPS N-Create, MPPS N-Set and Image C-Store as a sequence of messages. Some equipment may begin the storage process before the final MPPS N-Set message.

You can see an HTML version of the messages by opening the file:

$MESA_TARGET/mesa_tests/rad/msgs/index.html with a web browser.

This document lists test sequences but does not define required sequences for your actor or actors. Those requirements are listed in separate documents (a spreadsheet that lists test requirements in table form and separate test documents that provide test instructions for each actor).

Test Cases

50000: Eye Care Workflow: Test 1

Case 50000 is a test of the Eye Care Workflow from the EyeCare Integration Profile. It has the basic workflow steps shown in the table below. In brief:

• Patient Registration
• Order Placement (one order) by the Order Placer
• Scheduling by the DSS/OF
• Modality Worklist Query and image acquisition
• MPPS / Image Storage / Storage Commitment
