SNOMED International and DICOM have formally extended their longstanding agreement to publish a SNOMED CT Freeset of coded concepts in the Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) Standard.
This collaboration agreement, a renewal of the agreement negotiated in 2016, will extend for a 5-year term to July 1, 2026. DICOM has been incorporating SNOMED CT into its Standard for more than 20 years, originally through an agreement with the College of American Pathologists (CAP) before SNOMED CT was undertaken by IHTSDO, now rebranded as SNOMED International.
