Timeline : Previous Development Cycles
Roadmap
The Radiation Oncology Roadmap will outline goals and plans over the next 5-10 years.
Current Activity
The IHE-RO Technical Committee has published the following profile for Public Comment:
- Enterprise Scheduling Integration (ESI-J)
This integration profile involves the exchange of Schedule, Order, and Results information between hospital information systems and (Radiation Oncology) treatment management systems. The emphasis for this profile is on improving schedule and procedure coordination between the Radiation Oncology department and the rest of the clinical enterprise.

Use Case Selection
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.
COMPLETED Use Cases and their Integration Profiles
| Year Introduced | Use Case | RFP Text | Year Finished |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2005 | Simple treatment planning use case (NTPL-S) illustrates basic functionality for transferring data between treatment planning systems. See [NTPL-S] Normal Treatment Planning-Simple | NTPL-S RFP | 2007 |
| 2006 | Image Fusion for Segmentation* See [MMR-RO] Multimodality Registration for Radiation Oncology | MMR-RO RFP | 2008 |
