The IHE (Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise) Scheduled Work Flow integration profile describes a communication and work flow environment that provides benefits for radiology departments who want to standardize system software. The IHE technical framework defines this environment by specifying the systems involved and the messages exchanged by those systems. The Modality Worklist is a key component of the Scheduled Work Flow integration profile that allows an operator at each modality in the department to retrieve a list of scheduled procedure steps to perform and to automate the process of entering the correct patient identification information in all the images created with the modality. The IHE technical framework defines two transactions used by the modality to tell the Image Manager and Order Filler what was performed and how many images were acquired: the Modality Procedure Step in Progress and Modality Procedure Step Completed. Users who specify the Scheduled Work Flow integration profile will benefit immediately by achieving a certain baseline of functionality. However, users will derive further benefits of increased operational efficiency through negotiation with the providers of software solutions. The integration profile defines features that are optional; users should evaluate these features and request those that are determined to be beneficial.
整合医疗卫生企业（IHE）计划工作流程集成规范描述了一种通信和工作流程环境，可为希望实现系统软件标准化的放射科带来益处。IHE技术框架通过指定所涉及的系统以及这些系统交换的消息来定义此环境。模态工作列表是计划工作流程集成规范的关键组件，它允许科室中每个模态的操作员检索要执行的计划程序步骤列表，并在使用该模态创建的所有图像中自动输入正确的患者识别信息。IHE技术框架定义了模态用于告知图像管理器和订单填充器执行了什么操作以及采集了多少图像的两个事务：进行中的模态程序步骤和已完成的模态程序步骤。指定计划工作流程集成规范的用户将通过实现一定的功能基线立即受益。然而，用户通过与软件解决方案提供商协商，将获得更高运营效率的进一步好处。集成规范定义了一些可选功能；用户应评估这些功能并要求那些被确定为有益的功能。
