Interpreting the IHE Technical Framework (for monitors that are new to IHE)

This covers terminology used in IHE Technical Frameworks explains the structure of IHE documentation, and describes IHE's publication cycle. If you've never read IHE documentation before, you will find this background information helpful.

IHE Technical Frameworks

IHE profile documentation is published here:  http://www.ihe.net/Technical_Frameworks/  The page is organized by IHE domain (Radiology, Laboratory, etc...).    Within each domain, the profiles that are Final Text status are contained in the Technical Framework (Vol 1, 2, 3).  Profiles that are in Trial Implementation status are documented separately.

If you have time prior to Connectathon, we encourage monitors to review the Volume 1 material for your assigned profiles.  This assures that you understand the use cases behind each profile.  If you have time, you can start digging into the details of the transactions contained in Vol. 2 and 3.

 Profile-specific training resources (helpful for all monitors)

Monitors are asked to evaluate tests in profiles that are related to each other.  On this page, we gather available profile-specific training material.   Note that IHE technical project managers create training material over time, and many, but not all profiles, have specific training material.

Using Gazelle Test Management to review Connectathon test definitions (helpful for first-time monitors)

How to use Gazelle to read test definitions for IHE profiles you're assigned to evaluate.  Note that while the training doesn't show the new gazelle look-and-feel, the process is still identical.
