Cor Loef, Philips Medical Systems Implementation of IHE in a Radiology Department
Content: • Objective: Integrating (part of) the Healthcare Enterprise • Approach • How to specify and judge vendor offerings • Examples of how to use IHE in practice • Conclusion HIMSS / RSNA
The objective • Integrating (part of) the Healthcare Enterprise • Optimal support for workflow • Integrated IT solutions • Seamless information flow • Enable the EPR HIMSS / RSNA
The Healthcare Information System Complex ADT RIS MPI HIS PACS Display Modality HIMSS / RSNA
The approach • Focus on Operational Workflow analysis, information flow required for applications, current situation of products and transactions, desired situation, gap analysis, resulting in requirements for new products and upgrades • Expectation management • IHE supports this process with a common framework all involved parties can understand and commit to. HIMSS / RSNA
Integration Profiles • IHE is not a product itself. • Functions are grouped in a set of Integration Profiles, Actors, and Transactions. Need to map integration solution requirements on these IHE concepts. HIMSS / RSNA

Integration profiles, the easy way to deal with transactions • easy-to-understand, coherent functional sets and • a convenient way for users and vendors to communicate • about integration requirements and needed functionality in daily life. HIMSS / RSNA

Example: PACS • Standard: • Actors: Image Manager, Image Archive, and Image Display • Integration Profiles: Scheduled Workflow and Patient Information Reconciliation • Display and Printing Quality: • Actors: Image Display and Print Composer • Integration Profile: Consistent Presentation of Images HIMSS / RSNA
Example: PACS, part 2 • Modalities with Procedure grouping: • Actors: Image Archive • Integration Profile: Presentation of Grouped Procedures • Flagging specific images: • Actors: Image Archive and/or Image Display • Integration Profile: Key Image Note HIMSS / RSNA
Example: RIS Upgrade • Standard: • Actors: Order Filler • Integration Profiles: Scheduled Workflow and Patient Information Reconciliation • DICOM Structured Reporting • Actors: Report Manager, Report Repository, Report Creator and Report Reader • Integration Profile: Simple Image and Numerical Reports HIMSS / RSNA
Example: other systems: - Workstations - Modalities - Printers - Patient Registration - Order Entry • Just think about Actors and Integration Profiles HIMSS / RSNA
Will IHE do it all? A lot, but: • Current scope is Radiology, first important step towards EPR • Need to address performance requirements • Clinical applications required • Services are needed • Project management • Training • Implementation/transition management • Operational support HIMSS / RSNA
Conclusion • Using IHE Integration Profiles when writing specifications will make systems integration faster, more efficient, less expensive and successful. • Can go for a bigbang approach, but also for a focus on a specific smaller area. • Ask your vendors about the IHE Actors and Profiles they support in their products. • Success stories will be presented at the RSNA HIMSS / RSNA
