* '''Profile Name: AIR+'''
 +
** Describe gaps in Use Case coverage
 +
*** Split the use case into two chunks, but no gaps.
 +
** Review ALL "uncertainty points" in the evaluation. Is there a resolution plan for each?
 +
*** Yes, all reviewed. Each has a TODO text for resolution/next step.
 +
** Do the effort points in the evaluation still seem right?
 +
*** Mostly yes, little adjustments. But the examples are likely a bit more than a 2.
 +
** Did the Breakdown of Tasks accurately reflect the work? What extra tasks arose?
 +
*** Accurate.
 +
** Describe unresolved technical issues/tasks
 +
*** Some will derive from the feedback from the "focus group". Mostly well in hand.
 +
** Describe potential practical issues
 +
*** Will need to get tooling for example object generation.
 +
** Review the open issue list. Does it feel complete
 +
*** Will populate OI for PC. Most other questions are in the TODO plans. Feels complete.
 +
** Which open issues feel most risky; what other risks exist?
 +
*** Main risk might be aggressive expectations for display capabilities from the focus group
 +
*** Also risk of not being able to pull focus group together quickly (get on it now)
 +
*** Potential for examples to experience gold-plating/runaway complexity
 +
** How is the work fitting in the allocated bandwidth? (Time to spare? Just right? Things were left undone?)
 +
*** A bit of time to spare (partly because deferred a slot to a future tcon)
 +
** How does the scope feel? (Room to expand? Just right? Pretty ambitious?)
 +
*** Feels good.
 +
** If you had to reduce scope, what would you drop?
 +
*** Binary examples. (if need to drop more, would drop some paper examples)
 +
** Have the promised resources manifested?
 +
*** Mostly, will look for focus participants and help with tooling.
 +
** What tasks would benefit from additional expertise?
 +
*** Need good focus groups participants and experience with creating objects.
 +
** What vendors are engaged for each actor? Record how many.
 +
*** Evidence Creators: Canon, Philips?, GE, Siemens,
 +
*** Image Displays: Canon, Philips, GE, Siemens,
 +
** Was the profile where it needed to be at the start of the Kickoff meeting (See "Kickoff Meeting" above), if not what was the gap
 +
*** Yes.
 +
** Was the profile where it needed to be at the end of the Kickoff meeting, if not what was the gap
 +
*** Mostly. Will do some work based on the initial input for the next tcon
 +
** How many tcons would you like between now and the PC Prep Meeting?
 +
*** One or two. (The focus group will be separate)
 +
 
 +
 
 +
* '''Profile Name: IMR'''
 +
** Describe gaps in Use Case coverage
 +
*** Working on clarification of how the multimedia capability relate to structured part of the report.
 +
*** otherwise, cover the creation and display use cases, and several variations of the display use cases
 +
** Review ALL "uncertainty points" in the evaluation. Is there a resolution plan for each?
 +
*** Review the updated IMR design with the IMR working group
 +
*** Continue to develop and review the information model (important to clarify what is in scope and out of scope)
 +
*** Terminology clarification for 'structured' (coded vs conceptual sections vs ...)
 +
*** Continue to refine how we will profile DiagnosticReport and certain specific details (e.g. what and how different contents go into conclusion)
 +
** Do the effort points in the evaluation still seem right?
 +
*** Effort may be a bit low, but with the complexity point as a buffer, the total is still in the ballpark
 +
** Did the Breakdown of Tasks accurately reflect the work? What extra tasks arose?
 +
*** Mostly.
 +
*** Should have called out the information model explicitly
 +
** Describe unresolved technical issues/tasks
 +
*** Work through the DiagnosticReport mapping and how the presentedForm is created and corresponds to the content exist in the DiagnosticReport resource
 +
** Describe potential practical issues
 +
*** How to 'allow' sections in report without explicitly profiling them
 +
*** New to profiling FHIR resources by the Rad Tech
 +
** Review the open issue list. Does it feel complete
 +
*** Good list of questions in the powerpoint to guide the discussion and capture resolution and action items
 +
** Which open issues feel most risky; what other risks exist?
 +
*** DiagnosticReport mapping
 +
*** How to profile FHIR resources, what constraints IMR need to impose on each resource
 +
** How is the work fitting in the allocated bandwidth? (Time to spare? Just right? Things were left undone?)
 +
*** Would be better if a few more items were identified early and prepared ahead of time so we can discuss during the meeting (e.g. model mapping, FHIR resource packaging)
 +
*** otherwise, time are okay.
 +
** How does the scope feel? (Room to expand? Just right? Pretty ambitious?)
 +
*** Feel right from the perspective of what is requested to support interactive multimedia report with reasonable effort
 +
*** Feel tricky that without full profiling radiology reports using FHIR, there may be gaps unidentified
 +
*** Encourages Report Creator implementation to make up missing bits on their own
 +
** If you had to reduce scope, what would you drop?
 +
*** PDF option
 +
*** look at the different named options what can be dropped in what order
 +
** Have the promised resources manifested?
 +
*** Yes, David Kwon, Dr. David Vining, representatives from Smile CDR, and others from the IMR working group

  • Kickoff Assessments
  • Profile Name: AIR+
    • Describe gaps in Use Case coverage
      • Split the use case into two chunks, but no gaps.
    • Review ALL "uncertainty points" in the evaluation. Is there a resolution plan for each?
      • Yes, all reviewed. Each has a TODO text for resolution/next step.
    • Do the effort points in the evaluation still seem right?
      • Mostly yes, little adjustments. But the examples are likely a bit more than a 2.
    • Did the Breakdown of Tasks accurately reflect the work? What extra tasks arose?
      • Accurate.
    • Describe unresolved technical issues/tasks
      • Some will derive from the feedback from the "focus group". Mostly well in hand.
    • Describe potential practical issues
      • Will need to get tooling for example object generation.
    • Review the open issue list. Does it feel complete
      • Will populate OI for PC. Most other questions are in the TODO plans. Feels complete.
    • Which open issues feel most risky; what other risks exist?
      • Main risk might be aggressive expectations for display capabilities from the focus group
      • Also risk of not being able to pull focus group together quickly (get on it now)
      • Potential for examples to experience gold-plating/runaway complexity
    • How is the work fitting in the allocated bandwidth? (Time to spare? Just right? Things were left undone?)
      • A bit of time to spare (partly because deferred a slot to a future tcon)
    • How does the scope feel? (Room to expand? Just right? Pretty ambitious?)
      • Feels good.
    • If you had to reduce scope, what would you drop?
      • Binary examples. (if need to drop more, would drop some paper examples)
    • Have the promised resources manifested?
      • Mostly, will look for focus participants and help with tooling.
    • What tasks would benefit from additional expertise?
      • Need good focus groups participants and experience with creating objects.
    • What vendors are engaged for each actor? Record how many.
      • Evidence Creators: Canon, Philips?, GE, Siemens,
      • Image Displays: Canon, Philips, GE, Siemens,
    • Was the profile where it needed to be at the start of the Kickoff meeting (See "Kickoff Meeting" above), if not what was the gap
      • Yes.
    • Was the profile where it needed to be at the end of the Kickoff meeting, if not what was the gap
      • Mostly. Will do some work based on the initial input for the next tcon
    • How many tcons would you like between now and the PC Prep Meeting?
      • One or two. (The focus group will be separate)


  • Profile Name: IMR
    • Describe gaps in Use Case coverage
      • Working on clarification of how the multimedia capability relate to structured part of the report.
      • otherwise, cover the creation and display use cases, and several variations of the display use cases
    • Review ALL "uncertainty points" in the evaluation. Is there a resolution plan for each?
      • Review the updated IMR design with the IMR working group
      • Continue to develop and review the information model (important to clarify what is in scope and out of scope)
      • Terminology clarification for 'structured' (coded vs conceptual sections vs ...)
      • Continue to refine how we will profile DiagnosticReport and certain specific details (e.g. what and how different contents go into conclusion)
    • Do the effort points in the evaluation still seem right?
      • Effort may be a bit low, but with the complexity point as a buffer, the total is still in the ballpark
    • Did the Breakdown of Tasks accurately reflect the work? What extra tasks arose?
      • Mostly.
      • Should have called out the information model explicitly
    • Describe unresolved technical issues/tasks
      • Work through the DiagnosticReport mapping and how the presentedForm is created and corresponds to the content exist in the DiagnosticReport resource
    • Describe potential practical issues
      • How to 'allow' sections in report without explicitly profiling them
      • New to profiling FHIR resources by the Rad Tech
    • Review the open issue list. Does it feel complete
      • Good list of questions in the powerpoint to guide the discussion and capture resolution and action items
    • Which open issues feel most risky; what other risks exist?
      • DiagnosticReport mapping
      • How to profile FHIR resources, what constraints IMR need to impose on each resource
    • How is the work fitting in the allocated bandwidth? (Time to spare? Just right? Things were left undone?)
      • Would be better if a few more items were identified early and prepared ahead of time so we can discuss during the meeting (e.g. model mapping, FHIR resource packaging)
      • otherwise, time are okay.
    • How does the scope feel? (Room to expand? Just right? Pretty ambitious?)
      • Feel right from the perspective of what is requested to support interactive multimedia report with reasonable effort
      • Feel tricky that without full profiling radiology reports using FHIR, there may be gaps unidentified
      • Encourages Report Creator implementation to make up missing bits on their own
    • If you had to reduce scope, what would you drop?
      • PDF option
      • look at the different named options what can be dropped in what order
    • Have the promised resources manifested?
      • Yes, David Kwon, Dr. David Vining, representatives from Smile CDR, and others from the IMR working group
    • What tasks would benefit from additional expertise?
      • Content mapping
      • FHIR mapping / profiling
    • What vendors are engaged for each actor? Record how many.
      • Report Creator: Dr. David Vining, Smile CDR, Carestream, GE?
      • Report Reader: Change Healthcare, Carestream, Smile CDR, Dr. David Vining,
      • Image Display: Change Healthcare, GE?
      • Image Manager: Change Healthcare,
    • Was the profile where it needed to be at the start of the Kickoff meeting (See "Kickoff Meeting" above), if not what was the gap
      • A bit behind because the profile document is barely started
    • Was the profile where it needed to be at the end of the Kickoff meeting, if not what was the gap
      • Collected good feedback on all open questions. Enough materials to start
    • How many tcons would you like between now and the PC Prep Meeting?
      • Should schedule 1 or 2 meetings to review work-in-progress and confirm resolution to remaining uncertainties
      • Meetings with the IMR working group


  • Future Radiology Technical Committee Ballot
    • Lynn or Andrei will send profiles ready for ballot to Nichole. Nichole will prepare and send ballot 11/22 with a due date of 1/5/2022. Will review on the 1/6/2022 Radiology Technical Committee CP meeting
  • Start working with IHE Rad Tech and Plan on agenda for meeting at RSNA 2021.
