The IHE Technical Frameworks 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. Technical Framework documents are maintained regularly by the IHE Technical Committees through the identification and correction of errata.
Technical Framework 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.
