==Roadmap==
 
 
 
The Radiation Oncology Roadmap will outline goals and plans over the next 5-10 years.
 
 
 
 
 
==Current Activity==
 
 
 
The Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise - Radiation Oncology (IHE-RO) is soliciting use cases from the radiation oncology community.  A use case is a description of how end users will accomplish a goal by performing a task or a series of tasks using systems (or software) and includes the responses of the systems (or software) to user actions. IHE-RO use cases should focus on interoperability issues. If you are aware of an interoperability issue in radiation oncology, please prepare a one-page summary of the use case one of the following ways:
 
 
 
1.Scroll to the bottom of “Use_Case_Wish_List”, click on one of the "add your own" templates and fill in the content.
 
 
 
2.For the more "wiki savvy", use the template at “Brief_Proposal_Template”, fill it out and insert it in the Use Case Wish List table.
 
  
These use cases need to be submitted by Friday, May 28, 2010 for consideration in the 2010-2011 development cycle.
 
  
===Job Jar===
 
The creation of a 'job jar' to collect tasks, prioritize them, and solicit volunteers.  Click '''[[ihero_job_jar | here]]''' to access the wiki version of the job jar.

IHE Radiation Oncology addresses information sharing, workflow, and patient care in radiation oncology.

IHE-RO is sponsored by the American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM) and manages the IHE-RO Profiles and the IHE-RO Technical Framework

There are two committees in the IHE Radiation Oncology domain:

Meeting Calendar: IHE RO Calendar

Please contact Jill Moton at AAPM to join the mailing list.



Use Case

For an overview of submitting a Use Case for Radiation Oncology, please refer to this page.

Please read the Profile_Proposal_Process to understand the process for specifying, prioritizing and selecting profiles. Edit the following table to include new pages (using the above format) and use the Brief_Proposal_Template to create new Use Cases. The Detailed_Proposal_Template can be used later to provide full details. A high level Radiotherapy Process map provides a context for developing Use cases.
