RUIZ, Carlos; TRUJILLO, Andrés  y  GARCIA, Alvin. APROXIMACIÓN A LA REPRESENTACIÓN EN XML DE OBJETOS DICOM PARA FOTOGRAFÍA MÉDICA DIGITAL. Rev.EIA.Esc.Ing.Antioq [online]. 2007, n.8, pp. 147-163. ISSN 1794-1237.

DICOM standard (Digital Imaging and Communication in Medicine) is a non-proprietary protocol for the medical exchange information. DICOM represents and defines the information of real world objects like a magnetic resonance image (MRI), a computerized axial tomography and a digital medical photography (VL photographic), through information object definitions called IOD. The present article describes a methodology to represent the IOD of a digital medical photography of visible light (VL Photographic Image) through XML Schema documents. These documents were used in the creation and validation of XML documents to represent digital medical photographies compiling clinical and technical information for their later implementation in a teledermatology application.
