Fine.  I expect to have this kind of packages in the future.

These are interesting ideas but we have no packages which would cover these
fields and just inventing categories for non-existing packages might make
no sense at all.

I would suggest
   medicine::standards::dicom
(without the ::doc) because we have no documentation but implementation
packaged.
