DRK 2007DRK 2007

• Annual Congress of the German Röntgen Society (DRG)– ca. 7,000 participants (3,600 radiologists)

• 16-19 May 2007 in Berlin• Venue: “Messe Berlin”

– same place as connectathon

– Industry expo: Hall 2.1 and 4.1

• Congress is in German language


DRK 2007: Demonstration PlansDRK 2007: Demonstration Plans

• Goal: small-scale demonstration of new integration profiles:– Portable Data for Imaging Integration (PDI)– Import Reconciliation Workflow (IRWF)– Teaching File Export (TCE)– Scheduled Workflow (SWF) as „background“

• Planned booth size 70-80 m²– We will have to restrict the number of

participating systems (about 12-14)


Current State of PreparationsCurrent State of Preparations

• We will try to acquire 70-80 m² booth space – currently only a 30m² booth is reserved for IHE

– larger booth not yet confirmed by DRG

• Demo participation fees will be similar to ESC conditions:– 2500 € for the registration of one system (estimated)

– 1500 € for each additional system (estimated)

• Participation still possible, talk to me!


Current State of RegistrationsCurrent State of Registrations

• Source: tentative vendor registrations • Total DRK demo registrations so far: 10 systems

– two systems possibly “unsuitable” for the demo: • RVC (XDS document source)

• Orthocrat TraumaCAD (EC actor, but we have no DX modality)

• Separate slides per Integration Profile:– Scheduled Workflow (SWF)

– Portable Data for Imaging Integration (PDI)

– Import Reconciliation Workflow (IRWF)

– Teaching File Export (TCE)


Scheduled Workflow (SWF)Scheduled Workflow (SWF)

• Patient in “Hospital A” receives imaging study (which is then written on PDI-CD and given to the patient.)

• Current registration – no ADT, no Order Placer (can be simulated by MESA RIS Mall)

– two Order Fillers (needed for Virtual Hospital A + B)

– three Image Managers, two Image Displays

– one Evidence Creator

– no Modality

• Without a modality, SWF does not make too much sense. In the worst case, we can use a simulator or pre-acquired data, but a real modality would be much better

– 12 modalities registered for connectathon: GE, Siemens, Toshiba, Kodak, IMS, Metaltronica, Nical, Etiam


Portable Data for Imaging Integration (PDI)Portable Data for Imaging Integration (PDI)

• Patient data acquired in Hospital A is written to CD (and later imported through IRWF in Hospital B).

• Current registration – three Portable Media Creators

• grouped with Image Managers (partially with Image Display)

– two Image Displays (i.e., CD readers; these might or might not be used as part of the demo scenarios)

– three Portable Media Importers (will not be used as part of the demo since we use IRWF instead)

– other PDI actors (Display, Print Composer) also not used.

• Demonstration possible


Import Reconciliation Workflow (IRWF)Import Reconciliation Workflow (IRWF)

• Patient from CD is imported into Hospital B, using a new Patient ID, accession number etc.

• Current registration – five Importers

• four use Worklist-based “scheduled import” option, one unknown

– one Order Filler

– two Image Managers

– one Patient Demographics Supplier (but no Importer with support for „unscheduled import“ based on PDQ)

• Demonstration possible


Teaching File Export (TCE)Teaching File Export (TCE)

• Selection of “interesting cases” for a teaching case archive, which are anonymised and then exported

• Current registration – two Export Selectors (seem to be identical systems)

– no Export Manager

– no Receiver (Uni Mainz might provide RSNA’s MIRC system)

• At the connectathon, four more Export Selectors, one Export Manager (Agfa) and one Receiver (Kodak) are registered

• Demo depends on availability of Export Manager and Receiver

DRK 2007 Demo Schedule (2)DRK 2007 Demo Schedule (2)

• System configuration performed before systems are shipped to Berlin!

• All vendors arrive with their equipment on Wednesday morning (May 16) and set up their systems.

• Wednesday 12:00 all systems ready to start testing

• Wednesday 12:00-20:00 test runs until all scenarios work– 18:00 DRK opening ceremony: free food and drink if we are ready!

• Thursday + Friday 09:00-18:00 exhibition open

• Saturday 09:00-13:30 exhibition open

• Saturday 14:00-22:00 booth dismantling (devices removed)– Vehicle access to Messe campus possible from 15:00


DRK 2007 Demo Schedule (3)DRK 2007 Demo Schedule (3)

• In general, we need an operator for each system on the booth to be available full-time– Don’t plan additional duties at your commercial booth, unless

there is another colleague who can operate “your” system.


Booth Logistics (1)Booth Logistics (1)

• Insurance + transport is vendors’ own responsibility.

• We need details regarding size, weight, voltage and power consumption for all demo systems (especially if non-standard, i.e. 380V or larger/heavier than standard PC)– Modality vendors, talk to me!

• From all systems that generate images or documents(modalities, evidence creators, report creators):– we need a collection of sample documents in order to assemble

these to clinically interesting and consistent demo scenarios.

– E-Mail, FTP, CD-ROM by mail - all is OK, but please:• send a large collection (helps us to select something that “fits”)

• provide the collection as soon as possible


Booth Logistics (2)Booth Logistics (2)

• As usual, we will repeat the Connect-a-thon network and system configuration at the DRK demo as far as possible– Identical host names, IP addresses, AE titles, port numbers

– Do not change these settings after connect-a-thon!

– We might need additional Universal Service IDs and DICOM MWL action item codes depending on image material.

– Update your configuration before shipping the system!!

• List of patient demographics will not be pre-defined (unless we end up with no modality)

• No Internet or congress network access!


• We will provide one poster for each system on the demo with– Vendor logo and product name

– IHE logo and slogan

– IHE actors shown/supported

– Photo of a similar system used in a clinical setting

• We need you to provide– High-res vendor logo

– Exact product name

– Photo

Booth BrandingBooth Branding


Poster PhotosPoster Photos

• The photos are important because they give the booth a little „hospital feeling“ over the „computer shop“ look.

• We will provide photos, but these may not show your product, but possibly something from a competitor.

• You may provide your own photos. 2 MPixel resolution should be OK

• Important: We need photos that look as if taken in a real hospital setting (no high-gloss advertisement photos)!

• One good and one bad example (which is which?)


• A handout for booth guests will be provided by IHE.

• We will probably also have an inlay in thecongress bag given to each participant

• In German language

Hand-outsHand-outs


Best Effort PrincipleBest Effort Principle

• We will not be able to show all capabilities of all systems– We try to show as much as possible

– More important is that the scenarios are interesting and meaningful for our visitors.

– Scenarios depend on the systems you have registered

• Actor imbalance– Typically we have too many actors of some types registered and

not enough actors of other types (e. g. more image managers than modalities)

– Will use different configurations (e.g. morning and afternoon)


Authenticity PrincipleAuthenticity Principle

• Systems should “feel” authentic for visitors. Therefore, – Notebook as “Web Viewer” (Image Display) is OK

– Notebook as PACS or Modality is probably not OK

• No demonstrations on notebook LCDs (size, viewing angle)– If using a notebook, put notebook under table

and connect monitor and keyboard.


IHE Booths are Non-CommercialIHE Booths are Non-Commercial

• Goal of the IHE demonstration is to communicate the idea of IHE, i. e.– “Dear customer, requesting IHE functionality

as part of your RFPs will make your life easier.”

• We don’t promote the individual systems shown on the booth, we don’t compare which system is “better” – On the IHE booth we are all collegues and good friends.

Competition can be seen in the commercial exhibition areas.

– Please no commercial advertising material on the IHE booth.

– Please no commercial talks to potential customers. If they are interested in your product, please direct them to your commercial booth.
