For improving interoperability of medical information, health level 7 has initiated the development of a next-generation framework for the exchange of medical information called the Fast health interoperability resources (FHIR). However, there was no attempt to exchange the medical three-dimensional (3D) image with clinical data via FHIR. Thus, we designed a new method. The 3D image to be made from computed tomography was converted to the javascript object notation (JSON) file format, and clinical data was added. We made a test FHIR server, and the client used the postman. The JSON file was attached to the body, and was then transmitted. The transmitted 3D image could be seen through a web browser, and attached clinical data was identified in the source code. This is the first attempt to exchange the medical 3D image. Additional researches will be needed to develop applications or FHIR resources that apply this method.

FHIR, next-generation standard for health information exchange, allows to exchange health information fast and to provide various health services. In this paper, we propose an indexing scheme of FHIR resources for adopting the resources to wireless data broadcasting with a secure channel. That scheme keeps the information of users to support to download FHIR resources from the secure wireless broadcast channel and the information on the resources. Using the proposed index, massive users can download their desired FHIR resources with less energy in short time. With simulation studies, we show the proposed indexing scheme outperforms other scheme broadcasting FHIR resources.

On the ICT healing platform designed to issue early disease alerts, TOS connected between the provider of personal health-related data and the service provider and relayed personalized health data. In the previous study, TOS proposed how to monitor the retrieval and management of document/measurement resources by taking mobile devices into account. Recently the healthcare field, however, defined the standard items needed for communication and data exchanges with a mobile device through HL7 FHIR. This study designed a data grid model between TOS and FHIR to provide personal health resources relayed through TOS in FHIR bundle search sets. The proposed design was organized as follows: first, it stated similarities between the method of TOS resource request and that of FHIR observation request. Then, it designed an eventbus module to process a retrieval request for FHIR service based on the imdb and cluster technologies. The proposed design can be used to expand the old service terminals of ICT healing platform to mobile health devices capable of using FHIR resources.
