1
The set up of European Radiological Digital Data
System (ERDDS)
2
THE RATIONALE
Starting from critical and crucial areas medical
diagnostic imaging
Complexity of the European health system
scenario
Higher life quality and duration expectation
Need to increase integration among EU health
system
Increasing people mobility
But ICT advances in Radiology didnt experience a
real breakthrough
Continuous technological progress
Insufficient integration of different health
systems

GENERAL OBJECTIVES

• EXPLOITING THE AVAILABLE DIGITAL CONTENTS ON THE
  RADIOLOGY DEPARTMENT THROUGH THE EU
• IN ORDER TO DEFINE A EUROPEAN RADIOLOGICAL
  CLASSIFICATION
• IN ORDER TO SET UP A EUROPEAN RADIOLOGICAL
  DIGITAL DATA INTEGRATION FRAMEWORK
• This objective

will support integration and re-use of public
sector medical knowledge

PROJECT PARTICIPANTS
ERDDS CONSORTIUM includes representative
organization from Italy, France, Spain, Czech
Republic Three groups of content providers
Technical coordinator IMS
Administrative coordinator AO Careggi

Defined services

• General information about radiological
  procedures, equipment and law aspects to comply
  with (e.g. radiation exposure limits and
  protection)
• Information concerning diagnostic guidelines for
  pathologies based on appropriateness criteria
  defined by scientific societies
• Results of benchmarks among organizations
  participating to the network with regard to
  activity indicators, activity volumes, costs,
  tariffs, used technologies and human resource
  employment the involvement of Institutions not
  belonging to the network has been also considered
• Results of organizational benchmarks among
  radiological departments.

General information about radiological procedures

• Common understanding in Radiology among different
  Health care systems through a European Trans
  Nomenclature ( ERTN)

The first Prototype

• Will be finished within the next month
• Will provide a sub-set of functionalities
• First feedbacks from the users
• Will perform all the services described
• Will be tested directly from the final users
