This document reports on the datasets and a data structure for reporting clinical and biological evaluation metrics (CBEMs). The reporting of radiation dose estimates is outside the scope of this document. This document is applicable to CBEMs for external-beam radiation therapy (EBRT) modalities, but not CBEMs for brachytherapy or molecular radiotherapy. Various types of radiotherapy treatment modalities are available for cancer care. Consequently, there is a growing awareness of the need for objective schemes that will contribute to enable the selection of an appropriate radiotherapy treatment modality for individual patients. The use of CBEMs, the metrics associated with a certain radiotherapy treatment plan for a patient, is attracting attention for clinical purposes in the field of EBRT. In anticipation of the clinical use of CBEMs, the importance of research on clinical and scientific aspects of CBEMs is increasing, in concert with the importance of establishing a standardized data format for reporting of specifics of a CBEM.

ISO/TS 21089:2018 describes trusted end-to-end flow for health information and health data/record management. Health data is originated and retained, typically as discrete record entries within a trusted electronic health record (EHR), personal health record (PHR) or other system/device. Health data can include clinical genomics information. Health record entries have a lifespan (period of time managed by one or more systems) and within that lifespan, various lifecycle events starting with "originate/retain". Subsequent record lifecycle events may include "update", "attest", "disclose", "transmit", "receive", "access/view" and more. A record entry instance is managed ? over its lifespan ? by the source system. If record entry content is exchanged, this instance may also be managed intact by one or more downstream systems. Consistent, trusted management of record entry instances is the objective of this document, continuously and consistently whether the instance is at rest or in motion, before/during/after each lifecycle event, across one or more systems.

ISO 12052:2017, within the field of health informatics, addresses the exchange of digital images and information related to the production and management of those images, between both medical imaging equipment and systems concerned with the management and communication of that information. ISO 12052:2017 facilitates interoperability of medical imaging equipment by specifying: - for network communications, a set of protocols to be followed by devices claiming conformance to this document; - the syntax and semantics of Commands and associated information which can be exchanged using these protocols; - for media communication, a set of media storage services to be followed by devices claiming conformance to this document, as well as a File Format and a medical directory structure to facilitate access to the images and related information stored on interchange media; - information that is to be supplied with an implementation for which conformance to this document is claimed. ISO 12052:2017 does not specify: - the implementation details of any features of the DICOM standard on a device claiming conformance; - the overall set of features and functions to be expected from a system implemented by integrating a group of devices each claiming conformance to this document; - a testing/validation procedure to assess an implementation's conformance to this document. ISO 12052:2017 pertains to the field of medical informatics. Within that field, it addresses the exchange of digital information between medical imaging equipment and other systems. Because such equipment may interoperate with other medical devices and information systems, the scope of this document needs to overlap with other areas of medical informatics. However, this document does not address the full breadth of this field. ISO 12052:2017 has been developed with an emphasis on diagnostic medical imaging as practiced in radiology, cardiology, pathology, dentistry, ophthalmology and related disciplines, and image-based therapies such as interventional radiology, radiotherapy and surgery. However, it is also applicable to a wide range of image and non-image related information exchanged in clinical, research, veterinary, and other medical environments. ISO 12052:2017 facilitates interoperability of systems claiming conformance in a multi-vendor environment, but does not, by itself, guarantee interoperability.

ISO 14199:2015 defines a set of models collectively referred to as the Biomedical Research Integrated Domain Group (BRIDG) model for use in supporting development of computer software, databases, metadata repositories, and data interchange standards. It supports technology solutions that enable semantic (meaning-based) interoperability within the biomedical/clinical research arena and between research and the healthcare arena. The clinical research semantics are represented as a set of visual diagrams which describe information relationships, definitions, explanations, and examples used in protocol-driven biomedical research. These diagrams are expressed using the iconography and grammar of the Unified Modelling Language (UML), the HL7 Reference Information Model (RIM), and a Web Ontology Language (OWL). ISO 14199:2015 establishes the links between protocol-driven research and its associated regulatory artefacts including the data, organization, resources, rules, and processes involved in the formal assessment of the utility, impact, or other pharmacological, physiological, or psychological effects of a drug, procedure, process, subject characteristic, or device on a human, animal, or other subject or substance along with all associated regulatory artefacts required for or derived from this effort, including data specifically associated with post-marketing adverse event reporting.

ISO/IEEE 11073-10103:2014 extends the base nomenclature provided in IEEE 11073 to support terminology for implantable cardiac devices. Devices within the scope of this nomenclature are implantable devices such as pacemakers, defibrillators, devices for cardiac resynchronization therapy, and implantable cardiac monitors. The discrete terms necessary to convey a clinically relevant summary of the information obtained during a device interrogation are defined in this nomenclature. To improve workflow efficiencies, cardiology and electrophysiology practices require the management of summary interrogation information from all vendor devices and systems in a central system such as an Electronic Health Records (EHR) system or a device clinic management system. To address this requirement, the Implantable Device, Cardiac (IDC) Nomenclature defines a standard-based terminology for device data. The nomenclature facilitates the transfer of data from the vendor proprietary systems to the clinic EHR or device clinic management system.

Within the context of the ISO/IEEE 11073 family of standards for device communication, a normative definition of the communication between personal basic electrocardiograph (ECG) devices and managers (e.g. cell phones, personal computers, personal health appliances, and set top boxes) in a manner that enables plug-and-play interoperability is established in ISO/IEEE11073-10406:2012. Appropriate portions of existing standards including ISO/IEEE 11073 terminology and IEEE 11073-20601 information models are leveraged. The use of specific term codes, formats and behaviours in telehealth environments restricting optionality in base frameworks in favour of interoperability is specified. A common core of communication functionality for personal telehealth basic ECG (1- to 3-lead ECG) devices is defined. Monitoring ECG devices are distinguished from diagnostic ECG equipment with respect to support for wearable ECG devices, limiting the number of leads supported by the equipment to three, and not requiring the capability of annotating or analysing the detected electrical activity to determine known cardiac phenomena. ISO/IEEE 11073-10406:2012 is consistent with the base framework and allows multifunction implementations by following multiple device specializations (e.g. ECG and respiration rate).

ISO 21090:2011 - provides a set of datatype definitions for representing and exchanging basic concepts that are commonly encountered in healthcare environments in support of information exchange in the healthcare environment; - specifies a collection of healthcare-related datatypes suitable for use in a number of health-related information environments; - declares the semantics of these datatypes using the terminology, notations and datatypes defined in ISO/IEC 11404, thus extending the set of datatypes defined in that standard; - provides UML definitions of the same datatypes using the terminology, notation and types defined in Unified Modelling Language (UML) version 2.0; - specifies an XML (Extensible Mark-up Language) based representation of the datatypes. The requirements which underpin the scope reflect a mix of requirements gathered primarily from HL7 Version 3 and ISO/IEC 11404, and also from CEN/TS 14796, ISO 13606 (all parts) and past ISO work on healthcare datatypes. ISO 21090:2011 can offer a practical and useful contribution to the internal design of health information systems, but is primarily intended to be used when defining external interfaces or messages to support communication between them.

ISO/TS 27790:2009 specifies a general purpose document registry framework for transmitting, storing and utilizing documents in clinical and personalized health environments. It is quite broad in its applicability to realise the goal of sharing health related documents spanning a broad spectrum of health domains such as healthcare specialities covering laboratory, cardiology, eye care, etc and the many areas of personalized health. ISO/TS 27790:2009 also references a number of companion standards-based specifications that offer optional extensions to enhance the basic capabilities offered by IHE XDS. It references the support of the following. An XDS extension supporting the fragmentation of the content of the documents into two parts: a header fragment and a body fragment. This separation scheme enhances confidentiality because the gathering both of header and body and their relational information involves cracking into multiple repository servers. This has been developed as an IHE Korean Extension on the IHE XDS Profile. A series of security- and privacy-related IHE profiles, such as Patient Identification Cross-Referencing (PIX), Patient Demographics Query (PDQ), Basic Patient Privacy Consent (BPPC), Cross-Enterprise User Assertion (XUA).

ISO/TR 21730:2007 provides guidance for the deployment, use and management of mobile wireless communication and computing equipment in healthcare facilities in a way that promotes effective electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) among the wireless technology and active medical devices through mitigation of potential hazards due to electromagnetic interference (EMI). The recommendations given recognize the different resources, needs, concerns and environments of healthcare organizations around the world, and provide detailed management guidelines for healthcare organizations that desire full deployment of mobile wireless communication and computing technology throughout their facilities. In addition, suggestions are included for selective restrictions in cases where healthcare organizations have decided that comprehensive management procedures are not feasible, practical or desirable at the present time. The recommendations herein distinguish between wireless technology controlled by the facility and used by doctors and staff for healthcare-specific communication and health informatics transport versus non-controlled (personal) mobile wireless equipment randomly brought into the facility by visitors, patients or the healthcare organization workforce.
