Xt-EHR T7.2 Sub-team for Imaging Reports Model Analysis

Deploy Status Analysis For Review

Original Project Request

Prompt: "Analyze the Xt-EHR Imaging Report information model to identify which data elements are actually used in real-world imaging reports versus those that could be considered 'beyond basic' by comparing with real-world imaging reports from the PARROT dataset."

Specific Requirements:

  1. Extract all data elements from Xt-EHR Imaging Report and Study models
  2. Analyze real-world usage patterns from PARROT dataset
  3. Map real-world elements to Xt-EHR model elements
  4. Identify candidates for "beyond basic" classification
  5. Generate recommendations for basic vs. beyond basic categorization

Live Analysis Dashboard

The dashboard provides: - Interactive data element usage statistics - Real-world vs. model element mappings - Detailed analysis results and recommendations - Downloadable reports and visualizations

Overview

This project provides evidence-based analysis of the Xt-EHR Imaging Report information model by comparing theoretical model elements against real-world usage patterns from the PARROT dataset. Our goal is to identify which data elements are essential for core clinical workflows versus those serving specialized administrative or technical functions.

🤖 AI Analysis Attribution

In accordance with EU AI Act transparency requirements (Article 52):

AI-Assisted Analysis: The data analysis, pattern identification, and report compilation in this project were performed with the assistance of Claude Sonnet 4.5 (Anthropic), a large language model and General-Purpose AI system. All findings have been validated against source data from the PARROT v1.0 dataset and Xt-EHR model specifications, and are subject to expert review by the Xt-EHR T7.2 Sub-team.

Scope of AI Involvement: - Analysis of 2,738 real-world imaging reports from PARROT v1.0 dataset - Pattern recognition and element usage frequency calculations - Comparative mapping between real-world data and Xt-EHR model specifications - Classification recommendations (Basic, Intermediate, Beyond Basic categories) - Documentation synthesis and report generation

Human Oversight: All AI-generated analysis and recommendations undergo expert validation and are reviewed within the context of healthcare interoperability standards and clinical practice.

📖 Compliance Resources: - EU AI Act Compliance Statement - Full regulatory compliance documentation - AI Attribution Quick Reference - Attribution templates and FAQ
