The Pathology Special Interest Group is in fetal stage, i.e., not even born yet. There is a sizable group of people who believe that the time is ripe for a CDA based standard for Surgical Pathology reports. We will have to craft a mission and charter statement, which will be the first thing to do on this Wiki.
+
== Group Status ==
 +
This Work Group has been dissolved (July 25, 2016) and rolled back into the Orders and Observations Work Group (OO) [http://wiki.hl7.org/index.php?title=Orders_%26_Observations_WG]. Anatomic Pathology is not currently meeting separately from OO.  
  
The vision would be to have an interoperable surg path report standard implemented by most major pathology system vendors by the end of 2007. That means we should have a pilot in spring 2007 (HIMSS venue?). The scope and depth of the specification would be the normal free text report, with required structured data elements for basic specimen description as well as the College of American Pathologists' (CAP) "protocols" of synoptic report data, as structured data elements.
+
== Mission ==
  
My motivation for this is that I have been doing information extraction on free text pathology reports for some years and although I think my approach was cool, and I know there are other cool approaches, at the end of the day, those are all toys. Toys that will only work 80% of the time, which is pretty good but just not good enough ot use even for research data extraction, let alone for patient care. At the same time the current pathology reports that we see get worse with the synoptic reporting dumped as text in the middle of the final diagnosis where I used to be able to extract some structured information. I know that systems are built with structured data entry for CAP reporting and other information, so we just have to have a widely accepted CDA specification with structured data to make the problem go away from here on. I decided that it is better to spend some efforts on making this standard happen rather than to try to improve the sophistication of information extraction.
+
The mission of the Anatomic Pathology WG is to develop and review implementation guides of HL7 standards and to enhance existing HL7 standards to support anatomic pathology use cases. It will work within HL7 as well as with external organizations to facilitate information interoperability in anatomic pathology, such as:
 +
*Tracking of anatomic pathology specimens
 +
*Structuring and coding of anatomic reports
 +
*Integrating and consolidating anatomic pathology data and other data into the medical record (e.g. integrated composite reports)
 +
*Ensuring consistency of anatomic pathology data and corresponding image association (includes both radiology and pathology imaging)
 +
*Reviewing previously defined terms that differ between organizations (e.g. What is a “specimen”)
 +
*Developing/reviewing value sets as needed (e.g. DICOM Specimen Embedding Media)
 +
*Collecting and sharing data from biorepositories/tissue banks
  
So, the mission and charter and project statements will follow here.

 +
==Charter ==
 +
 
 +
The basic charter of the Anatomic Pathology work group is to initially support the development and implementation of Version 2.x and CDA. Use cases and/or implementation guides brought to the group for review that include Version 3.0 will be addressed on an individual basis. Since the mission of the group is to review existing implementation guides/profiles and recommend changes as needed, as opposed to creating entirely new standard definitions, most work will focus on use case or organization specific needs.

Group Status

This Work Group has been dissolved (July 25, 2016) and rolled back into the Orders and Observations Work Group (OO) [1]. Anatomic Pathology is not currently meeting separately from OO.

Mission

The mission of the Anatomic Pathology WG is to develop and review implementation guides of HL7 standards and to enhance existing HL7 standards to support anatomic pathology use cases. It will work within HL7 as well as with external organizations to facilitate information interoperability in anatomic pathology, such as:

  • Tracking of anatomic pathology specimens
  • Structuring and coding of anatomic reports
  • Integrating and consolidating anatomic pathology data and other data into the medical record (e.g. integrated composite reports)
  • Ensuring consistency of anatomic pathology data and corresponding image association (includes both radiology and pathology imaging)
  • Reviewing previously defined terms that differ between organizations (e.g. What is a “specimen”)
  • Developing/reviewing value sets as needed (e.g. DICOM Specimen Embedding Media)
  • Collecting and sharing data from biorepositories/tissue banks

Charter

The basic charter of the Anatomic Pathology work group is to initially support the development and implementation of Version 2.x and CDA. Use cases and/or implementation guides brought to the group for review that include Version 3.0 will be addressed on an individual basis. Since the mission of the group is to review existing implementation guides/profiles and recommend changes as needed, as opposed to creating entirely new standard definitions, most work will focus on use case or organization specific needs.
