This study developed XML Schema to represent Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) Structured Reporting (SR) data, enabling better data exchange and retrieval in healthcare. The framework successfully generated and validated a schema, now used in clinical reporting.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Informatics
  • Health Information Technology
  • Digital Health

Background:

  • The Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) Structured Reporting (SR) standard enhances clinical documentation for diagnostic images and waveforms.
  • Facilitating seamless information exchange and computer processing of clinical reports is crucial in modern healthcare.
  • The increasing adoption of Extensible Markup Language (XML) technologies for medical data storage and exchange necessitates robust standards.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop XML Schema for representing DICOM SR documents.
  • To create a framework for generating XML Schema from the existing DICOM SR specification.
  • To support the integration of DICOM SR data within XML-based healthcare information systems.

Main Methods:

Related Experiment Videos

  • A comparative analysis of Document Type Definition (DTD) and XML Schema was performed.
  • A framework was designed for generating XML Schema tailored for DICOM SR representation.
  • An XML Schema instance was created based on a DICOM SR example and validated.

    • Main Results:

    • A validated XML Schema instance for DICOM SR was successfully generated.
    • The developed schema is actively used for generating reports from Philips Medical Systems ultrasound equipment.
    • The framework demonstrated feasibility for representing DICOM SR data in XML format.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed framework enables the generation of XML Schema from the DICOM SR specification.
    • This approach is applicable for creating XML Schemas for other DICOM information objects.
    • The developed XML Schema facilitates improved data interoperability and accessibility in healthcare reporting.
