This session will provide attendees with an opportunity to hear vendors discuss their views on the future of image sharing. A lively panel discussion including the topics of PHR, DICOM/IHE, XDS-I, as well as their company’s perspectives of these topics, will give an inside perspective on vendors’ rationales. Discussion will revolve around analyzing the limitations of CD/DVD based image exchange, as well as discussion on the emergence of electronic personal heath records and how new initiatives will drive the transition to fully electronic image exchange.

Objectives:

1. Discuss the limitations of CD/DVD based image exchange and how the transition to “cloud” based solutions seek to overcome them.
2. Discuss the emergence of personal electronic health records and how they impact the process of image exchange.
3. Analyze how to meet requirements pertaining to the new RSNA Cross-enterprise Document Sharing for Imaging (XDS-I) project.
