isaacvetter opened Issue #23

In offline conversation with @NiklasSvenzen , @wmaethner and @lbergnehr, we talked about adding an optional _upcomingStudies_ context to the open-imaging-study event. The _upcomingStudies_ would define a FHIR List of ImagingStudy resources.

The intent is to support existing, ad hoc productions integrations which use a feature like this to allow the subscriber to cache or pre-load a list of studies that are next in line on the user's worklist.

I considered Bundle, but these resources should be ordered. The required pieces of data on the List should be the _status=current_, and then the array of entry.item. I'm not sure if the ImagingStudy resources referenced in the List should be contained, limited by the _elements parameter or simply references (or perhaps not specified in FHIRcast).

I'm not sure that this is the correct place to trigger pre-fetching. I'm not sure the sender should be dictating ordering of studies.

Hey @ElliotSilver !

We were thinking more of "pre-loading" than "pre-fetching". I think that pre-fetching means the loading of images from long-term storage and often happens in batch even overnight. "Pre-loading" is simply the identification of upcoming studies on the worklist in order.

Does that change your feedback?

Isaac
