1. September, 2005What IHE Delivers 1 Donald Van Syckle DVS Consulting, Inc. www.dvsconsult.com IHE Eye Care Evidence Documents

2. 2 Evidence Documents An extension of the Eye Care SWF profile (i.e. actors must support SWF before supporting Eye Care ED) Measurements, observations and coded data created using DICOM objects Typically created by either an Acquisition Modality or Evidence Creator (i.e. eye care instruments, standalone workstations, EMRs, etc.)

3. 3 Evidence Documents Produced during acquisition or post- processing workflows May be Interpreted along with images or stand alone Either DICOM Structured Reports (SR) or DICOM Encapsulated PDF

4. 4 Eye Care Evidence Documents Examples Glaucoma progression analysis performed on visual field analyzers RNFL analysis performed on an OCT device Measurements on fundus images Measurements on anteriour chamber OCT images for phakis IOL implantation planning Corneal ablation planning based on corneal topography maps Others….

5. 5 Eye Care Example Does anyone have a clinical eye care example that we could use here. I’m looking for a picture of a typical report plus a view bullets with words to describe

6. 6 DICOM Structured Report (SR) Reports that include actual measurement values, observations and/or coded data to describe eye care evidence Eye Care specific DICOM SRs being defined by WG9 – IHE will adopt upon completion  Keratometer, Autorefractor, Lensometer, biometry, visual fields Could use the currently defined Simple Image and Numeric report for measurements on Fundus images (is this true)

7. 7 Eye Care Extension DICOM Encapsulated PDF Also includes measurement values, observations and/or coded data to describe eye care evidence However, DICOM Encapsulated PDF is a “display only” solution Is used when no specific DICOM SR solution is defined I need the current examples being worked upon

8. 8 Would Like pics to show two examples

9. 9 Managed Like Images Evidence Documents can be transferred, stored, and query/retrieve just like images Exists in the same study as images Patient Information Study Information Series Information Image SR Evidence Document Series Information DICOM Encp. PDF Series Information Other Composite IODs Patient ID Study Inst. UID Series Inst. UID SOP Inst. UID

10. 10 ED a Part of Performed Procedure Step` Image Patient Imaging Serv. Req. (Order) Requested Procedure Scheduled Procedure Step Study Mgt Performed Procedure Step Study Series ED Image A PPS is an “Atomic Imaging/Measurements Exam” A PPS Starts and Ends. It is never resumed ! A PPS Starts and Ends. It is never resumed ! A PPS produces one or more series of images/evidence documents A PPS produces one or more series of images/evidence documents Once a PPS is completed, images/evidence documents cannot be added to a series Once a PPS is completed, images/evidence documents cannot be added to a series Additional PPS can always be performed Additional PPS can always be performed A Study usually holds the work product for a Requested Procedure A Study usually holds the work product for a Requested Procedure A Study may be multi-modality (I.e. multiple instruments) A Study may be multi-modality (I.e. multiple instruments)

11. 11 Workflow

12. 12 Example – Acquisition Modality Images have been taken at an Acquisition Modality After image acquisition, the Acquisition Modality performs post processing such as:  a glaucoma progression analysis  RNFL analysis performed on an OCT device  Others….. Evidence Documents are created using DICOM SR or DICOM Encapsulated PDF Evidence Documents are:  stored in the same Study as the images (in a separate series)  tracked using DICOM MPPS  sent to the storage server  securely stored using Storage Commitment

13. 13 Example – Workstation, EMR Unscheduled post-processing done after the acquisition, products support both the Image Display Actor and Evidence Creator Actor Use DICOM query/retrieve to acquire previous images and/or measurements then perform post-processing  measurements on fundus images  corneal ablation planning based on corneal topography maps  measurements on anterior chamber OCT images for phakic IOL implantation planning  Others… Evidence documents are:  either DICOM SR or DICOM Encapsulated PDF  stored in the same study as created by the Acquisition Modality  sent to the storage server  securely stored using Storage Commitment

14. 14 IHE Generic Keys for Query Retrieve of: - Images - Evid. Doc. - SR R = Required and the SCU shall be able to display R+ = IHE Requirement on top of DICOM

15. 15 Extension for PDF Query How to store, query, retrieve for Evidence Documents is defined by SWF DICOM SR queries for Evidence Documents have been defined by radiology Eye Care added the storage and query for DICOM Encapsulated PDF  Added a new display field for the Image Display actors from query, the PDF “Document Title”
