“Generic” means of sharing clinical
documents
Part of ITI domain (not Radiology)
Based on clinical and non-clinical standards:


Transmission:
Indexing:
Documents:

XDS-I

Like XDS but based on:




Uses the same registry
A submission set is a DICOM Key Object Note
(manifest) object



DICOM (data format)
WADO or native DICOM (retrieval mechanisms)
May include representative sub-sets
Use of WADO permits retrieval either as JPEGs for
simpler browsers or full DICOM images
Compatible with caching but still with integrity

Problems solved by XDS-I







Use of WADO for retrieval solves C-MOVE problems
One registry solves indexing problems
There is an explicit mechanism to update/delete
registrations (no equivalent in DICOM)
“Submission Sets” are independent of StudyUID, so
mixtures from different trusts are not a problem
New but increasingly supported international standard
(being implemented in Canada and many others)
Uses Standard web security mechanisms
Standardised access allows “web access” to be used
for pre-fetching etc., and integration with other
clinical data
Conclusions



Virtually all the problems being worked on by
CfH have already got agreed international
IHE solutions which are supported by vendors
XDS & XDS-I in particular provide a
mechanism to provide wide-area area, but
fully controlled access to medical data, with
proper specialisation for images
The Connectathon next week should be
interesting!
