HE/ITR&D/SIV/RK001021 Page 6 of 36Document No. 001021, Revision 1.0Agfa HealthCare 24 May, 20051 INTRODUCTION1.1 Revision RecordTable 1-1 Revision RecordRevisionNumberDate1.0 February 18, 2005 NewReason for Change1.2 Purpose and Intended Audience of this DocumentThis document is a DICOM Conformance Statement for the DICOM Services of the Paxport Version 4.1modality.The user of this document is involved with system integration and/or software design. We assume that thereader is familiar with the terminology and concepts that are used in the DICOM 3.0 standard and the IHETechnical Framework.Readers not familiar with DICOM 3.0 terminology should first read the appropriate parts of the DICOMstandard itself, prior to reading this conformance statement.Although the use of this conformance statement in conjunction with the DICOM 3.0 standard is intended tofacilitate communication with Agfa Healthcare equipment, it is not sufficient to guarantee, by itself, the interoperationof the connection.1.3 General Remarks1.3.1 Integration and Validation ActivitiesThe integration of any device into a system of interconnected devices goes beyond the scope of theDICOM 3.0 standard and this conformance statement when interoperability is desired. The responsibility foranalyzing the applications requirements and developing a solution that integrates the Agfa equipment withother vendors’ systems is the user’s responsibility and should not be underestimated.In some circumstances it might be necessary to perform a validation to make sure that functionalinteroperability between the Agfa equipment and non-Agfa devices works as expected. The user shouldensure that any non-Agfa equipment provider accepts responsibility for any validation required for theirconnection with the Agfa equipment.1.3.2 Future EvolutionAs the DICOM 3.0 standard evolves to meet the user’s growing requirements and to incorporate newfeatures and technologies, Agfa will follow the evolution of the standard. This evolution of the standard mayrequire changes to devices that have implemented DICOM 3.0. The user should ensure that any non-Agfaprovider, who connects with Agfa devices, also plans for future evolution of the DICOM standard. A refusal todo so may result in the loss of functionality and/or connectivity between the different products.
