This document establishes the Reference Standards Portfolio (RSP) for the field of clinical imaging (as defined in Article 4). An RSP lists the key health information technology (HIT) standards that provide the basis for implementing and deploying interoperable applications in the target domain. An RSP instance includes a domain description, a normative list of standards, and an informative framework for mapping standards to example deployment use cases. The lists do not include standards of specifically national scope. The primary audience for this document includes policy makers (governmental or organizational), legislators, project planners and health information technology (HIT) managers. This document is also intended for other stakeholders such as equipment and TIS vendors, clinical and health information management professionals, and standards writers. This document is intended to inform decisions regarding the selection of standards that will form the basis of integration projects across geographic regions or healthcare organizations. For example: — the standards to be used to capture/encode/exchange certain types of information; — the standards to be used for interfaces between devices and information systems enabling the capture, management, exchange, processing and use of information; — standards to be used for particular use cases/deployment scenarios. Selected standards and/or corresponding RSP articles may be useful when developing project specifications.
