ADA 1051-2015

This report provides a technical specification based on the DICOM Standard as it applies to dentistry with the goal ofincreasing interoperability within and between institutional digital radiographic systems. This report will illustrate through high-level interaction use cases how to achieve interoperability for typical dental imaging tasks. They are:

• (1) view and print images on removable media;
• (2) create interoperable removable media images;
• (3) share images among various networked multi-vendor storage and acquisition systems;
• (4) ability to exchange visible light photographic and endoscopic images within a dental image acquisition context;
• (5) create and exchange DICOM structured display objects;
• (6) perform scheduled workflow to integrate digital images with an electronic dental records system;
• (7) import and reconcile Images from outside the institution into the electronic dental records system;
• (8) securely transfer DICOM images via email, and;
• (9) access DICOM images locally via the Internet.

These use cases show the DICOM requirements in context, describing them in clear relationship to the clinical tasks of the dental provider.
