Guest post by Andrei Morariu, Smart Reporting This whitepaper explores the transformative potential of Common Data Elements (CDEs) and highlights Smart Reporting’s ongoing involvement in their development and integration. CDEs are structured, predefined data points designed to standardize clinical documentation and reporting in radiology. By enhancing clarity, interoperability, and

It was terrific to see so many friends and collaborators in Washington last week—and especially such good attendance at our in-person meeting. I'll have a post summarizing that meeting later this week. In the meantime, a debrief on our SIIM Hackathon project: as you may recall, our

The Problem One of the biggest challenges in the creation of Common Data Elements (CDEs) is the integration with different ontologies. Each system—whether it’s SNOMED, RadLex, or Anatomic Locations—organizes medical concepts differently, often with overlapping codes and varying terminologies. As discussed in the last post, thousands of

This isn't a post—it's a promise. We're going to try to do at least a brief post every day here leading up to the SIIM meeting next week! Getting very excited to see everyone there, both informally and all together at the in-person

We're going to meet in-person at SIIM in Washington—we're going to be in Baltimore 1–2 from 7–8a Eastern on Friday, June 28. Agenda * CDE committee update for the vendor community * RadElement and MARVAL sites * Review process * Update on OIDM progress * CDE content enabling

We will be working on the tooling around improving the utility of CDE Sets at the SIIM Hackathon this year! We already have a toolchain that lets us nearly automate the process of generating CDE Set definitions, including some techniques using LLMs for assistance (post on this soon!) At the

In our article on OIDM-based reporting assistance, we described a framework by which a reporting system exposes data about the current reporting context to plugins, which are then able to use that context to potentially offer assistance back to the reporting radiologist via standardized commands. Let's take a

Hello OIDM Community! We're excited to bring you some key updates following a busy period leading up to RSNA. Our community has seen remarkable developments, and we’re eager to share them with you.
