  • Title: Integrating radiology information systems with healthcare delivery environments using DICOM and HL7 standards.
    Author: Blazona B, Koncar M.
    Journal: Stud Health Technol Inform; 2006; 124():292-7. PubMed ID: 17108539.
    Abstract:
    Integration based on open standards, in order to achieve communication and information interoperability, is one of the key aspects of modern health care information systems. Interoperability presents data and communication layer interchange. In this context we identified the HL7 standard as the world's leading medical Information and communication technology (ICT) standard for the business layer in healthcare information systems and we tried to explore the ability to exchange clinical documents with minimal integrated healthcare information systems (IHCIS) change. We explored HL7 Clinical Document Architecture (CDA) abilities to achieve radiology information system integration (DICOM) to IHCIS (HL7). We introduced the use of WADO service interconnection to IHCIS and finally CDA rendering in widely used Internet explorers.
