Store healthcare data with client libraries

This page shows you how to use the Cloud Healthcare API and the Google API Client Libraries to complete the following tasks:

Create a Cloud Healthcare API dataset.
Create one of the following data stores inside the dataset:

Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) store
Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) store
Health Level Seven International Version 2 (HL7v2) store

Store and inspect a particular type of medical data in the DICOM, FHIR, or HL7v2 store.

If you're only interested in working with one type of data store, you can skip directly to that section of the quickstart after completing the steps in Before you begin and Create a dataset.

Before you begin

Sign in to your Google Cloud account. If you're new to Google Cloud, create an account to evaluate how our products perform in real-world scenarios. New customers also get $300 in free credits to run, test, and deploy workloads.

Install the Google Cloud CLI.

To initialize the gcloud CLI, run the following command:

gcloud init

Create or select a Google Cloud project.

Create a Google Cloud project:
```
gcloud projects create PROJECT_ID
```
Replace PROJECT_ID with a name for the Google Cloud project you are creating.
Select the Google Cloud project that you created:
```
gcloud config set project PROJECT_ID
```
Replace PROJECT_ID with your Google Cloud project name.

Make sure that billing is enabled for your Google Cloud project.

Enable the Cloud Healthcare API:

gcloud services enable healthcare.googleapis.com

Create local authentication credentials for your Google Account:

gcloud auth application-default login

Grant roles to your Google Account. Run the following command once for each of the following IAM roles: roles/healthcare.datasetAdmin, roles/healthcare.fhirStoreAdmin, roles/healthcare.dicomStoreAdmin, roles/healthcare.hl7V2StoreAdmin

gcloud projects add-iam-policy-binding PROJECT_ID --member="user:EMAIL_ADDRESS" --role=ROLE

Replace PROJECT_ID with your project ID.
Replace EMAIL_ADDRESS with your email address.
Replace ROLE with each individual role.

Install the Google Cloud CLI.

To initialize the gcloud CLI, run the following command:

gcloud init

Create or select a Google Cloud project.

Create a Google Cloud project:
```
gcloud projects create PROJECT_ID
```
Replace PROJECT_ID with a name for the Google Cloud project you are creating.
Select the Google Cloud project that you created:
```
gcloud config set project PROJECT_ID
```
Replace PROJECT_ID with your Google Cloud project name.

Make sure that billing is enabled for your Google Cloud project.

Enable the Cloud Healthcare API:

gcloud services enable healthcare.googleapis.com

Create local authentication credentials for your Google Account:

gcloud auth application-default login

gcloud projects add-iam-policy-binding PROJECT_ID --member="user:EMAIL_ADDRESS" --role=ROLE

Replace PROJECT_ID with your project ID.
Replace EMAIL_ADDRESS with your email address.
Replace ROLE with each individual role.

Install the client libraries

The following samples show how to install the Google API Client Libraries:

Go

go get google.golang.org/api/healthcare/v1

Java

For information on configuring a Java development environment, see Setting up a Java development environment.

If you're using Maven, add the following to your pom.xml file using a version in the Google Cloud Libraries Bill of Materials (BOM). For more information about BOMs, see Using Cloud Client libraries.

Create a dataset

Datasets contain data stores, and data stores contain healthcare data. To use the Cloud Healthcare API, you must create at least one dataset.

Run the following sample to create a dataset. You use this dataset throughout this quickstart.

Before running the samples, uncomment and provide the following values if necessary:

the ID of the Google Cloud project that you created or selected in Before you begin for the project ID
my-dataset for the dataset ID
us-central1 for the dataset location

Go

Before trying this sample, follow the Go setup instructions in the Cloud Healthcare API quickstart using client libraries. For more information, see the Cloud Healthcare API Go API reference documentation.

To authenticate to Cloud Healthcare API, set up Application Default Credentials. For more information, see Set up authentication for a local development environment.

Store a DICOM instance

Download the sample DICOM instance file to your machine. The file contains a de-identified patient X-ray.

curl

curl -O https://cloud.google.com/healthcare-api/docs/resources/dicom_00000001_000.dcm

PowerShell

Invoke-WebRequest -Uri "https://cloud.google.com/healthcare-api/docs/resources/dicom_00000001_000.dcm" -OutFile $pwd/dicom_00000001_000.dcm

Run the following samples to store the DICOM instance. The samples assume you're running the code from the same directory where you downloaded the DICOM instance.

Before running the samples, uncomment and provide the following values if necessary:

the ID of the Google Cloud project that you created or selected in Before you begin for the project ID
my-dataset for the dataset ID
us-central1 for the dataset location
my-dicom-store for the DICOM store ID
dicom_00000001_000.dcm for the DICOM file name

Store and view FHIR resources

This section shows how to complete the following tasks:

Create a FHIR store.
Store a FHIR resource in the FHIR store.
View the FHIR resource's data.

The Cloud Healthcare API implements the FHIR specification standard to store and access FHIR data.

Create a FHIR store

FHIR stores exist inside datasets and hold FHIR resources. Run the following samples to create a FHIR store.

Before running the samples, uncomment and provide the following values if necessary:

the ID of the Google Cloud project that you created or selected in Before you begin for the project ID
my-dataset for the dataset ID
us-central1 for the dataset location
my-fhir-store for the FHIR store ID

Store and view an HL7v2 message

This section shows how to complete the following tasks:

Create an HL7v2 store.
Store an HL7v2 message in the HL7v2 store.
View the HL7v2 message's data.

The HL7v2 implementation in the Cloud Healthcare API aligns with the HL7v2 standard.

Create an HL7v2 store

HL7v2 stores exist inside datasets and hold HL7v2 messages. Run the following samples to create an HL7v2 store.

Before running the samples, uncomment and provide the following values if necessary:

the ID of the Google Cloud project that you created or selected in Before you begin for the project ID
my-dataset for the dataset ID
us-central1 for the dataset location
my-hl7v2-store for the HL7v2 store ID

The HL7v2 message contains the following basic information, where it is base-64 encoded in the data field of the sample file:

MSH|^~\&|A|SEND_FACILITY|A|A|20180101000000||TYPE^A|20180101000000|T|0.0|||AA||00|ASCII

Run the following samples to store the HL7v2 message. The samples assume you're running the code from the same directory where you downloaded the HL7v2 message.

Before running the samples, uncomment and provide the following values if necessary:

the ID of the Google Cloud project that you created or selected in Before you begin for the project ID
my-dataset for the dataset ID
us-central1 for the dataset location
my-hl7v2-store for the HL7v2 store ID
hl7v2-sample.json for the HL7v2 message file name

After storing and viewing an HL7v2 message in the Cloud Healthcare API, continue to Clean up to avoid incurring charges to your Google Cloud account for the resources used in this page.

For more information on working with HL7v2 data, see What's next.

Clean up

To avoid incurring charges to your Google Cloud account for the resources used on this page, delete the Google Cloud project with the resources.

If you created a new project for this quickstart, follow the steps in Delete the project. Otherwise, follow the steps in Delete the dataset.

Optional: Revoke the authentication credentials that you created, and delete the local credential file.
```
gcloud auth application-default revoke
```
Optional: Revoke credentials from the gcloud CLI.
```
gcloud auth revoke
```

Delete the project

Delete a Google Cloud project:

gcloud projects delete PROJECT_ID

Delete the dataset

If you no longer need the dataset created in this quickstart, you can delete it. Deleting a dataset permanently deletes the dataset and any FHIR, HL7v2, or DICOM stores it contains.

Before running the samples, uncomment and provide the following values if necessary:

the ID of the Google Cloud project that you created or selected in Before you begin for the project ID
my-dataset for the dataset ID
us-central1 for the dataset location
