Next PaLM Meeting: September 20, 2023

Agenda

  • F2F logistics:
    • PathVisions
      • DICOM wants to get together again, but they would only have 2 hours for a joint call/in-person
      • Topics for consideration
        • Follow up from last F2F
          • Identifying use cases we need to support and evaluate the DICM standard (Ruben)
            • Digital example files from Markus
          • Questions related to DPIA profile (What goes into DICOM header vs what is in the profile?)
        • Next Step: Kevin to get date and time set – 10/29 either 8-10 or 10-12 AM ET
          • Do we know what vendors will be there?
            • Sectra (could send US rep)
        • If this meeting does not work, we could use second hour of the IHE PaLM calls
    • European F2F
      • For Digital Pathology profile, it would be good to have Leica and Sectra present.
      • Aim for spring 2024 March or April, but not week of April 8th – Mary and Ruben to send out some options on the listserv.
    • No updates on Gazelle, LTW CP, Technical Framework since Alessandro was not on the call.
  • DICOM update:
  • Proficiency profile update:
    • Jim H has a good to do list for the next couple of weeks.
    • The primary activity has been negotiations between CAP PT and Duke on how to do the presentation project
      • Identifying the core data elements needed for the orders and results
      • Crosswalk to HL7 V2.5.1 and to set this set up for a proof of concept.
      • Will also identify the elements needed for FDA / SHIELD BAA.
        • Identify the use cases for PaLM (PT – anything else? that fits into this – like IVD datahub, or datahub to PH – the way the test is identified should be the same for both, though may need additional patient demographics for PH).
        • As SHIELD moves forward with identifying tests – need to check how closely CAP PT testing elements map to it.
  • Digital Pathology
  • Comments on DPIA
    • MSH-9 suggests using a different message structure – use ORL_O34 instead of ORL_O42 – Riki to check on the message structure we are using. But since we are describing the ORL_O34 later, it is most likely a typo.
    • Paragraph around 730 – one order per specimen for modality
      • Would not make a difference to send multiple orders to Leica, but for each specimen would expect only 1 order in 1 message – that’s what we have, so the ORL, which is the answer, would only have a single order to respond to. We will need to fix the table.
  • DPIO
    • Physical steps of specimen prep are tracked in the LIS; PACS is responsible only for the images.
    • Slide 32:
      • PACs needs to know the scan ID is issued by the LIS.
      • Need to differentiate between just a rescan – same slide ID, vs recut on different slide ID.
    • Slide 36:
      • Percent of cells that are positive – data element in PACS.
      • Display gross examination report from LIS.
    • Slide 37:
      • Unsolicited result to subscription list – list of applications that get results, so if result is available will send everything that is ready – this is NOT described in this profile – could use IHE cross enterprise service bus (https://wiki.ihe.net/index.php/Cross-Enterprise_Service_Bus_(XSB)_Proposal).
        • For example, PACS would be on the list to receive the gross report from the LIS and this can have multiple updates. There is not really a final, as this will get updated when the pathologist gets more info back from the micro examination.
        • Will have to set up reconciliation to ensure the report is the latest, but not as hard to do, as long only 1 of the systems is doing the reporting (PACS should not allow the editing of gross report or other fields that are populated with data from reports by other systems).
      • Query for specific data element – using QBP messages.
        • Mostly to ask for specific patient, but not common.
        • Do we need to describe?
    • Slide 39 – need more research around LB4
    • Slide 40:
      • Actions described here come from image viewer.
    • Slide 41:
      • Treating DICOM CID, which is using SCT as the codes; can reference its OID in SPM-6.15.
      • Ruben will create an example of HL7 messages.
      • Raj will work off-line to progress based on this.
  • Next call will be Sept 20 - in the first hour, will have to split with UDI topic / second hour is for proficiency profile.
