Description
Summary:The DICOM standards committee has balloted and accepted a new class of objects dealing with the generation, distribution and management of reports. The Structured Reporting (SR) objects bridge the traditional separation between imaging and information systems.

This poster presents the technical challenges posed by integrating the concepts introduced by SR with a complete Hospital Information System (HIS).
