Integration of HIS components through open standards: an American HIS and a European Image Processing System.
This paper describes the integration of an existing American Hospital Information System with a European Image Processing System. Both systems were built independently (with no knowledge of each other), but on open systems standards. The easy integration of these systems demonstrates the major benefit of open standards-based software design.
