Abstract
Intra oral (IO) X-ray images are most-used in the dental clinics in Japan today. And it is very important to introduce the filmless PACS. But there was no standardization to display the IO images like analog films, so they developed their original unique format on their hospital.
In the other hand, the JJ1017 standard is also used between HIS, RIS and PACS as a translation format. But this JJ1017 was not popular in dental solution and only one case was reported in 2010. In this report, we tried the IO image for adaptation to this JJ1017 based on Hokkaido University Hospital's information system and propose some expansion of the JJ1017 standard.
At first, in JJ1017, only three figures can be used to indicate teeth region. But it is too little to show all patterns of teeth. Then it is proposed that some external extension for tooth region. Secondly, it is necessary to layout the images correctly on viewer that some specific displaying template and their inside positioning code are defined. And it is proposed that the templates are recorded on the 6th and 7th digit of JJ1017–16M and their inside positioning code were also recorded on the 19th and 20th digit of JJ1017–16S.
