Overview

This asset is a component of MuleSoft Accelerator for Healthcare.

MuleSoft Accelerator for Healthcare enables healthcare providers to unlock critical patient data to build a patient 360 within Salesforce Health Cloud, faster and easier than ever before. The solution includes pre-built APIs, connectors, integration templates, and prescriptive end-to-end reference architecture to bring patient demographics information and COVID-19 test results from any EHR into Health Cloud using HL7 V2 or FHIR standards.

The solution also provides a library of United States Core Data for Interoperability (USCDI) and FHIR R4 resources to help healthcare developers adhere to interoperability needs and jumpstart the development of healthcare digital transformation initiatives.

Use case covered

A series is of only one modality (e.g. X-ray, CT, MR, ultrasound), but a study may have multiple series of different modalities.

ImagingStudy provides information on a DICOM imaging study, and the series and imaging objects in that study. It also provides information on how to retrieve that information (in a native DICOM format, or in a rendered format, such as JPEG). ImagingStudy is used to make available information about all parts of a single DICOM study.

This resource provides mappings of its elements to DICOM attributes. DICOM attributes are identified by a 32-bit tag, presented in canonical form as two four-digit hexadecimal values within parentheses and separated by a comma, e.g. (0008,103E). The name and value representation (data type) of each attribute can be found in DICOM Part 6 Data Dictionary . The use of the attributes in the context of information objects, including detailed description of use, can be found in DICOM Part 3 Information Object Definitions . Attributes used in the DICOM query information models, such as "Number of Instances in Study", can be found in DICOM Part 4 Annex C .

ImagingStudy provides access to significant DICOM information but will only eliminate the need for DICOM query (e.g., QIDO-RS) in the simplest cases. The DICOM instances are not stored in the ImagingStudy resource; use of a DICOM WADO-RS server or other storage mechanism is needed.

An ImagingStudy SHALL reference one DICOM Study, and MAY reference a subset of that Study. More than one ImagingStudy MAY reference the same DICOM Study or different subsets of the same DICOM Study.

This library is used by FHIR R4 ImagingStudy API.
