The absence of any HIS-RIS-PACS integration strategy results in a big time, means and human resource waste, as information are hard to access and share, remaining within the system that have generated.1 In connection with so called “Open Source” spirit, was established to get a digital information system management in order to ensure cooperation, creating suitable programs capable to export any kind of information in an open format by means of non proprietary interfaces and compatible with any system, according to I.H.E. (Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise) philosophy, with great benefit for the whole scientific community. The Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise (IHE) initiative defines such a consensus effort and framework for integrating information systems in a healthcare environment. The IHE technical framework defines, , a common information model and a common vocabulary for systems to use in communicating medical information. It then specifies how DICOM and HL7 are to be used by information systems to complete a set of well-defined transactions that accomplish a particular task.
