Find endpoints is the process of identifying and retrieving compatible care services as outlined in the mCSD protocol ITI-90. This guarantees that the EPD/PACS can locate the registered data provider endpoints where it can subsequently access the healthcare data. Both the query to the addressing service and its returned resources are semantically aligned with FHIR.
- EPD/PACS: Requests a list of resources from the Addressing Service based on query parameters
- Addressing Service: Accepts the query request and returns a list of matching resources
