Interoperability: DICOM
Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM**) is the worldwide standard for medical imaging and related data. It is used in virtually all imaging-intensive medical professions, from radiology and cardiology, to radiation oncology, to pathology, and more.
Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise (IHE**) is an international public-private collaboration promoting standards-based interoperability in healthcare. IHE Profiles specify focused solutions for major information sharing use cases; IHE Connectathons provide a venue for cross-vendor interoperability testing.
Health Level Seven International** specifies interoperability standards in the healthcare clinical and administrative data domain. Its standards help improve care delivery, optimize workflow, reduce ambiguity and enhance knowledge transfer. HL7 standards include Version 2 (HL7v2), Version 3 (HL7v3), Clinical Document Architecture (CDA), and Clinical Context Management (CCOW).
