Minutes

Digital Pathology

  • Focus on acquisition workflow section 13 part A
  • Order step driven workflow
  • If physical asset appears unexpected can query => part B
  • Variant reconciliation workflows and QC will be in part C
  • Pathology Lab view diagram shows priority we will be focusing on first
  • Figure 3.3-13.2 shows LAW – just need to replace analyzer with Acquisition modality – can we adapt LAB-27, LAB-28, LAB-29 for use in AP?
    • See David’s email regarding that suggestion
  • LAW sounds good for workflow management– but question is can the payload that is used in these messages be used for AP – but in AP we need to figure out how to get the meta data about the specimen prep across
  • Need to find out what the messages are, that are currently used
  • Differentiate between messages for transmission of info for scanning vs transmission of image
    • Example: Control the magnification of the scanner – AP LIS to scanner – how to do that – make a new field?
    • Communicate type of staining in DICOM header (meta data) – need to communicate specimen processing information to the scanner.
  • Specimen ID can already be handled well in HL7.
  • we leverage DICOM meta data in HL7?
    • Specimen DAM will be published soon – will check this against the DICOM data elements and then need to map to the HL7 product family
  • No point to use the DICOM specification, just need to be sure the elements needed for later DICOM representation are available = right here we are talking about the upfront control
  • Scanners need/are used to HL7 elements for the upfront end
  • David to be liaison to DICOM WG26 / will also map SRT to SCT
    • IHE has entered into agreement to get free use of SCT codes in the profiles – will have to expand that set with these new ones, if different from what we have for APSR 2.1
  • Propose smaller weekly WG call – tackle transactions of LAB-27/28/29 and identify where all the DICOM elements should be communicated; potentially use the specimen call Tuesdays 3 PM EDT – Riki will post to google group (Tuesdays 3 - 4 PM EDT Online Meeting Link: https://join.freeconferencecall.com/ord Online Meeting ID: ord If not on FCC or not wanting to use VOIP, use the following dial-in: Dial-in Number (United States): (515) 739-1430 Access Code: 294586 International Dial-in Numbers: https://www.freeconferencecall.com/wall/ord#international FAQ’s, tips and other helpful information regarding FreeConferenceCall.com is available at www.HL7.org > Resources > Tools and Resources > FreeConferenceCall.com Tip Sheet)
  • JD and Riki to work on PSS for this part; real life use case (DICOM meta data should also be reviewed if that is good for the pathologist – can we check if Bruce Beckwith? Can he join this call or the specimen call?
  • DICOM example to map to specimen DAM classes / attributes and then send to Bruce Beckwith for review
  • Question about DICOM – specimen – can define the container, sequence etc. but confused if we get to formalized templates for certain slides – need to look at APW work (this has all the identifier examples for different use cases – describes the nested container model) – can produce DICOM template – can make templating mechanism for use across HL7 and DICOM) Nick will look at APW and then potentially add in new use cases, that are needed since APW was written
  • Survey what people are already doing with strainers and scanners = send examples to the google group, co-chairs will find a place to publish these – include request to AP – look at the presentation on LIS interface to instruments are in drop box (http://wiki.ihe.net/index.php/APW-EDM_White_Paper)

November 2018 F2F

  • F2F meeting location was switched from Tokyo to Paris; Toyko is in Spring 2019; have survey monkey to collect attendance then we will find venue in Paris – same dates and times = Nov 12 - 14
  • F2F Agenda items send to Mary or post to google groups – with amount of time desired

LCC

  • LCC to be sent for publishing by end of August

SNOMED CT/IHE agreement update

  • SCT list should have been submitted after final QC fixes by Francois

TMA

  • Dan still working
  • Just finished new publication cycle for EPIC, so that he can use the example messages from there, so aim for August/ September 2018

SET

  • See Document with proposed message structures:
    • Use EVN for event type declaration – so used in ALL SET messages
    • PRT to globally map participation for the event
    • Specimen collection / container prepared = Z01
      • PRT after SAC and SPM is specific to the specimen collection and container prep
      • For order linking we only need the placer or filler order number, but in OBR; must use OBR-4; if you are talking about specimen for current orders that should not be an issue
      • For container prepared use do we have to have the SPM required? Need to just look at what elements are R in SPM = SPM-4 = type is required (we would know the expected type, and it should be the same as the actual specimen type = related to LBL – there type is also required, so leave as is
      • Alessandro will build example messages for these use cases
    • Specimen Movement tracking message = Z02
      • Main section is shipment group
      • Then specimen group, which includes package group
      • Specimen rejected = should this use the SHP-5 for the reason, when SHP-3 (status) is rejected
      • Timestamp message is effective for should be same in EVN-6 and SHP-4
      • Do we need to decide if the shipment is rejected, the package or the specimen – may be different timestamps / reject reason locations
      • May need to split these out into shipment / package / specimen level; since in an inter-organizational move, there is not a package / shipment concept – so make different message structure
      • TO DO: Make example messages for each of these situations
    • Specimen re-identified / de-identified = Z03
      • Need old and new identifier and if the link needs to be covered; seems straight forward
      • TO DO: Make example messages
    • If we can use the same message structure then merge the use cases for biobanking = Z04 / specimen derivation (would the SET track what processing was done when deriving a specimen? Or does it ONLY create the link between the parent and child? = just the fact that it was derived and be able to link back to one or more parents) = Z05
      • For the biobanking /specimen archiving, would we need to include the location where the specimen is stored? Maybe use the PRT for that.
      • Specimen destroyed / discharged? – do we need to capture that? Alessandro will add back into the matrix spreadsheet
      • TO DO: Make example messages
    • Specimen processing tracking = Z06
      • Just tracking start and end time – also what type of processing? This could be looked at for the digital pathology scanner meta-data / clinical lab prep = that part is covered in LDA or related to LDA? QUESTION FOR ALESSANDRO
      • Use OBX currently, but if we design a separate new segment for describing processing, then will replace OBX here with that segment
      • TO DO: Make example messages
    • For next month Alessandro will prepare examples for review-plan for second hour, but start early, time permitting

The call ended at 10:00 am Central.
