1) Understand how report templates can improve productivity. 2) Examine how IHE profiles facilitate system interoperability. 3) Learn about the features of the new IHE profile for management of radiology report templates. 4) Review proposed new features for radiology reporting systems.

The purpose of this session is to demonstrate how existing and planned IHE profiles can help improve the workflow in a medical imaging department, and help those responsible for its operation, monitor what is happening. Prior IHE profiles focused heavily on traditional RIS & PACS. Newer projects are focused on exchange of images and reports between medical facilities. We will also describe future possible profiles for utilizing RadLex to improve radiologist efficiency. We will also describe workflow terminology in RadLex and describe how that can help manage and improve departmental workflow.
