Adoption of DICOM by ISO DICOM Liaison to ISO/TC215 9/12-14/2004 At San Francisco
DICOM Strong cooperation with TC215 (liaison A, WADO, joint WG2 yearly meeting) Strong desire to further expand cooperation. DICOM publication as an ISO standard on-going discussion: DICOM is a set of 16 documents (about 3000 pages) Available for free distribution from dicom.nema.org Active extensions (15 supplements/year) and maintenance (50 corrections/year). Republishing as an ISO Standard and establishing on-going maintenance appears a rather big task. DICOM has been consulting with the ISO secretariat and would like to propose the following alternative: Do nothing, assuming that the international acceptance of DICOM is sufficient Follow the CEN approach to issue a brief standard (scope + normative references (ISO directives part 2-6.2.2) to DICOM parts).
DICOM Standards Committee approved • The development of an ISO standard that results in the adoption of DICOM by ISO. • The approach suggested by ISO/TC215 • This ISO standard would be issued directly for a DIS ballot. • The DIS consists of • A definition of the scope, applications, and an overview of the published parts of the DICOM Standard; • References to the parts of the DICOM Standard as currently published by DICOM. ISO rules allow non-ISO documents to be referenced under conditions that are met by DICOM.
DICOM Standards Committee suggests the following approach • DICOM will produce a draft text to be distributed in November 2004 for comments by the ISO/TC215 WG2 members as well as DICOM Standards Committee members. • Based on this feedback, a draft DIS text will be produced for review at the joint TC215 WG2 and DICOM WG-10 meeting in Orlando on January 29th. • Based on this feedback, a proposed DIS Text would be prepared, finalized and a DIS Ballot issued at the May 9-12, 2005 ISO TC 215 Plenary in Berlin.
DICOM Standards Committee would like to express • its satisfaction at the successful completion of the joint ISO-DICOM standard on Web Access to DICOM Persistent Objects and • looks forward to further cooperation fostering harmonization of healthcare IT standards.
