#**Rene: at some point AID may be transformed into a fullblown HL7 User Group (HUG).

Non-members pay a fee of $100 a year, and get to attend all meetings. The $100 (EUR 70) was defined for a UG with just one annual face to face meeting in mind. On the assumption we (as AID) can nearly always use a sponsored meeting room (e.g. provided by a software vendor) the meetings costs are limited to catering costs (EUR 20-45, depending on the quality thereof).

 +
#***Of the participants today only 3 are not members of HL7 nor an affiliate.

#***Ewout: I have an intrinsic motivation to 'share', having the shared information behind some 'membership only wall' doesn't motivate me to share.

#*Ewout took part in the SIIM hackathon, a diagnostic imaging hacking event. He will briefly present his experiences in blending RESTful DICOM approaches with FHIR.
 +
#**Ewout had no knowledge of DICOM prior to SIIM. The FHIR resource combines study/series/instance data, whereas QIDO/WADO-RS deals with those individually. Smaller issues reletaed to data types.
 +
#**First time that Ewout was in contact with respresentatives from imaging companies, FHIR resourse dev in close cooperation, they'll visit HL7 connectathons as well.
 +
#**Discussion around getting more DICOM implementers to the join these meetings? Good idea.

#An OpenEHR RESTful Archetyped API (Jan-Marc Verlinden, [http://www.medvision360.com/ Medvision360], NL)
 +
#*Jan-Marc and Ralph are working on a RESTful API (see http://www.medrecord.nl/medrecord-json-api/) for MEDRecord, an open source OpenEHR based application. They will show how the API is related to the back end EHR, as well as how one could create a FHIR frontend on top of this API.
 +
#*(side note) Developed PAAS for dicom data, we found its impossible to store that mass amount of data, found non-fiber netweroks uncable for cloud storage of the data. Project at Univ. of Utrecht, used project hackathon to push the project forward. Show combined medical images (MRI and 24 channel EEG) in 3D. Philips MRI fMRI. DICOM + Philips DICOM. Two vendors related to image processing and viewing.
 +
#*MEDRecord with archetyped API.
 +
#**Tried an XML approach (w XML db first). Queries would take up to 8 seconds, too slow.
 +
#**Postgress version. MedRecord JSON API. No AQL support, not sure what query language to support, AQL not finalized yet, currently use postgress queries. Focusing on spicif queries for specific use cases, not generic query option. Query for EHRs associated with a certain patients, then query for compositions within such EHRs. OpenEHR has an API specificed in XML. 
 +
#**XML version is open sourced, Postgress version has not been open sourced.
 +
#*Ian: there's an interest in defining a common REST based interface for OpenEHR. We have a XML representation, JSON needs to be worked on.
 +
#*Jan-Marc: in OpenEHR, split between communications model and knowledge system, shows HL7 VMR model (for decision support) mapping.
 +
#*Jan-Marc: no problem creating a FHIR interface. Would need mappings. Ian: it's actually not that hard. Not a surprise that they are similar.
