Diogene was developed in the 1970's by Professeur Jean-Raoul Scherrer, MD at the University Hospital in Geneva, Switzerland. Designed from 1971 to 1973 (1). It was originally developed to support adminstrative procedures. Diogene now supports many applications including lab, radiology, pharmacy (2). The system has both a centralized patient database, and centralized group of operators who train and support users. The centralized patient database includes mechanisms for data protection and recovery of a transaction-oriented system. It also includes a separate network of remote printers that provides service throughout the entire institution; and a three-component structure that enhance communication between administrative and medical applications (1).

The project was approved and funded in 1973 and in 1978 it was fully adapted as the hospital information system for the University Hospital of Geneva (3). It retained its architectural unity until Diogene 2 was launched.

In 1993, Unimage, a radiology information system was created and implemented at the Cantonal University Hospital of Geneva as a part of the migration towards the DIOGENE 2 hospital information system. It was designed to fit the needs of the radiology department, and to operate in different services, i.e. diagnostic radiology, nuclear medicine and therapy radiology. It offered a simple two-way data communication with the PACS world. It was designed for a distributed environment, as well as a graphical (X/Motif) user interface (4).

The need for modification and extension over the years led to the creation of “Diogene 2” a full-scale distributed/open hospital information system 2 by June 1995 (5) (it went from centralized to an open distributed architecture). Diogene 2 was created to reach other public hospitals and general practioners in the Geneva. Diogene 2 integrated knowledge by incorporating knowledge bases such as Medline providing relevant information for helping the physician to take adequate decisions; and medico-economical issues helping to understand resources consumption (6).

In 1999, a newly developed clinical vocabulary was built. The vocabulary was created based on the international ICD classification which facilitated the communication and exchange of data (7).
