Requirements for sharing Radiology Image
• DICOM conformance statements– DICOM Association– Supported SOP classes– Accepted Presentation Contexts– Supported Transfer Syntax
• Accession no. – Conform to standard format– Uniqueness within institution– Linked with RIS exam
• Radiology Exam record– RIS Exam record uploaded to EHR prior to radiology images
• Accept recent 2 year image studies7

Image upload scenarios
• New image study– Images with new and unique study instance UID
• Override existing images– Images with the study instance UID of the images to be
amended
– Images in eHR will be overridden by the new study
• Delete existing images– IHE Imaging Object Change Management (IOCM) rejection note
message that contains HCR’s identity information and the study instance UID of the images to be deleted
– Delete RIS exam record to withdraw report and images10

Connectivity
• DICOM Connectivity
– Pre-registered AE Title on eHR side
– Register EHR DICOM gateway as new endpoint in HCP’s DICOM gateway / PACS
• Network
– Encrypted communication (IPsec VPN)
– Support internet connection
– Suggested network bandwidth: 50Mbps (upload) + 50Mbps (viewing)

Changeover approaches for image upload
• Parallel operation
– short period of parallel run
– then switch to eHR
• Direct cutover
– HCP stops sending images to HA
– HCP sends images to EHR
