The IHE Technical Frameworks, available for download at www.ihe.net/technical_framework/index.cfm, are a resource for users, developers and implementers of healthcare imaging and information systems. They define specific implementations of established standards to achieve effective systems integration, facilitate appropriate sharing of medical information and support optimal patient care. The Technical Frameworks are expanded annually, after a period of public comment, and maintained regularly by the IHE Technical Committees through the identification and correction of errata.

Technical Framework Supplements and related documents that are currently in their designated public review phase are linked below. Comments are invited on all published Technical Framework documents on an ongoing basis. All comments should be submitted using the links provided below.
