Cloud Healthcare API for Processing FHIR, HL7v2, and DICOM Data

Details

The Cloud Healthcare API is designed to bridge the gap between existing care systems and applications built on Google Cloud. It achieves this by supporting standard-based data formats and protocols used by current healthcare technologies. This connectivity allows ingested data to be linked to advanced Google Cloud capabilities, including streaming data processing via Cloud Dataflow, scalable analytics using BigQuery, and machine learning through Cloud Machine Learning Engine. The practical application involves ingesting and processing industry-standard data in FHIR, HL7v2, and DICOM formats. Furthermore, users can train a TensorFlow model for prediction using FHIR data and gain practice with de-identification of datasets. This capability is crucial for modernizing healthcare IT infrastructure, enabling the transformation of raw clinical data into actionable insights for advanced analytics and predictive modeling. By supporting multiple standards (FHIR, HL7v2, DICOM), it facilitates the seamless integration of diverse legacy systems with cutting-edge AI/ML technologies.
