Minutes
* Add detailed dates to 2008-2009 development timeline
- [Timeline] updated with new deadlines
- Action Item: Reissue call for Brief Profile Proposals with due date of Sept. 15
* Reviewed Brief Profile Proposals submitted thus far
- Basic Image Review
- Addresses demands for standardized baseline viewer by AMA, AANS, ACR, etc.
- Dovetails with PDI to allow access to images for referring physicians
- Profile would set baseline functional criteria and set some broad parameters for user interface
- Physician groups may still persist in seeking development of a mandatory baseline viewer
- Profile development challenge will be organizing participants and gaining satisfactory consensus (while avoiding "buttonology")
- Goal is to have event to evaluate viewers at AANS meeting in April
- David Clunie volunteers to help draft supplement
- Initial view is that this is a small to medium piece of work
- PDI Extensions
- Expands PDI to address other kinds of media--removable USB media and DVD
- Low to medium effort: may be set of CPs to PDI or new version of profile
- XDS-I Using XDS.b Technology
- Scope of current profile is limited to upgrading the technology for publishing and retrieving manifests from XDS.a-based to XDS.b
- DICOM WG10 is now working on Web services-based transfer protocols to be published in 2009
- Intent would be to replace the transfer protocol sections of XDS-I profile when the new DICOM Web services become available
- Question is whether security details ought to be included/referenced; eg, is XUA available for prime time
- Medium to large effort; definitely a distinct profile supplement rather than CPs
- Enhanced DICOM Image
- Enables interoperability of applications at a higher level; see 5 use cases defined
- IHE might specify display behavior that makes use of the new objects
- Important to get domain experts, including workstation vendors
- Medium-sized piece of work
- Missing Brief Proposals
- SWFII
- Chris Lindop may assume that the updated profile has a slot
- Chris Carr will solicit a proposal from Chris Lindop for review
- Radiology Reporting
- RSNA committee in place to develop report templates for common radiology procedures
- At some point, this committee's work will need to be encoded in structured documents and addressed in radiology reporting workflow
- Chris Carr will ask Drs. Kahn and Langlotz about their timeline plans and when to expect work that may need coordination with IHE Radiology
- Mammography Rad-Tech Communication
- Drs. Ellis and Zuley have suggested developing a white paper on bi-directional interface
- Chris Carr will contact them and suggest that they submit a brief proposal on the topic
- Scheduling of
