How does FHIRcast enable the exchange of draft measurements?

Draft measurement exchange in FHIRcast

In addition to maturing support for websockets, FHIRcast's upcoming HL7 (STU2) ballot will enable the exchange of draft image measurements within the clinical workflow.

What are the workflows we want to enable?

Radiologist measures in PACS, validates in EHR

A radiologist measures a lesion in their PACS, this measurement is communicated in real-time to the EHR. The radiologist reviews and saves the report.

Backend algorithm measures, radiologist corrects

A backend algorithm measures a lesion on an image. This measurement is communicated in real-time to the EHR. The radiologist modifies the measurement and saves the report.

What are our technical options?

1. RESTful FHIR
2. FHIRcast event, aka Observation.open
