Minutes

• Reviewed voting and scoring procedure

• Proposal by Kevin O'Donnell to introduce proportional voting in order to make sure that groups specifically interested in subject areas with narrower interest have a fairer chance at representation.
• For simplicity's, the simple Condorcet method of ranking proposals (a unique value 1-n for each of n options; highest value to first choice) was selected for use.

• Reviewed roster. Eighteen representatives in attendance were judged to have met criteria for voting rights (member organization representatives; attended two consecutive meetings to attain voting rights; have not missed three consecutive meetings to lose voting rights).

• Review list of proposals under consideration. Based on the rough work estimates, committee agreed to take on the three highest vote-getting proposals.

• Points tallied by each using the Condorcet voting method:

• Remote Reporting for Imaging (TeleRadiology) - 60
• Clinical Decision Support for Radiology (CDS-R) - 63
• REM for Radiopharmaceutical Imaging - 40
• Shared Study Management (SSM) - 39
• Image Viewing and Upload over the Web (IVUW) - 47

• Profile development work items for 2014-2015 are thus:

• Remote Reporting for Imaging (TeleRadiology)
• Clinical Decision Support for Radiology (CDS-R)
• Image Viewing and Upload over the Web (IVUW)

• Each work item has an assigned author, but authors are encouraged to recruit additional editors and reviewers from relevant domain experts and user groups

• Add discussion on use cases (Vol. 1 material) with targeted user groups to agenda for Nov. 4-7 meeting

• Next Planning Committee Meeting: Breakfast meeting at RSNA: IHE Radiology Planning/Technical Committee Breakfast, Tuesday, Dec. 2; 8:30-10:30 AM, McCormick Place Room E271A
