Class Diagrams Examples
Class Diagrams Examples
Client software creates a concrete implementation of the abstract factory and then uses the
generic interfaces to create the concrete objects that are part of the family of objects. The client
does not know or care which concrete objects it gets from each of these concrete factories since
it uses only the generic interfaces of their products.
Use of this pattern makes it possible to interchange families of concrete classes without changing
the code that uses them. It separates details of implementation of a set of objects from their
usage.

Diagram represents DICOM extended domain, abstract description of the real world objects used
in the Modality-IS Interface. Modality is a piece of imaging equipment, e.g. computed
tomography (CT) or ultrasound (US).
A Patient is a human or an animal receiving, or registered to receive, healthcare services, or is
the subject of research studies. A Clinical Document is a part of the medical record of a patient.
It is a documentation of clinical observations and services provided to the patient.
Visit is a part of service episode, collection of events that fall under the accountability of a
particular Healthcare Organization in a single facility. A visit may be associated with one or
more physical locations (e.g. different rooms, departments, or buildings) within the same facility.
An Imaging Service Request is a set of one or more Requested Procedures selected from a list
of Procedure Types. An Imaging Service Request is submitted by one authorized imaging
service requester to one authorized imaging service provider in the context of one Service
Episode. An Imaging Service Request may be associated with one or more Visits that occur
within the same Service Episode.
A modality Scheduled Procedure Step is an arbitrarily defined scheduled unit of service, that is
specified by the Procedure Plan for a Requested Procedure. It prescribes Protocol which may be
identified by one or more Protocol Codes. A modality Scheduled Procedure Step involves
equipment (e.g. imaging equipment, surgical equipment, etc), human resources, supplies,
location, and time.
A Modality Performed Procedure Step is an arbitrarily defined unit of service that has actually
been performed (not just scheduled). It contains references to zero or more Series of Images.

In software engineering, a class diagram in the Unified Modeling Language (UML) is a type of
static structure diagram that describes the structure of a system by showing the system's classes,
their attributes, and the relationships between the
