  • Title: Lessons learned from a whole hospital PACS installation. Picture Archiving and Communication System.
    Author: Pilling JR.
    Journal: Clin Radiol; 2002 Sep; 57(9):784-8. PubMed ID: 12384103.
    Abstract:
    The Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital has incorporated a fully filmless Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) as part of a new hospital provision using PFI funding. The PACS project has been very successful and has met with unanimous acclaim from radiologists and clinicians. A project of this size cannot be achieved without learning some lessons from mistakes and recognising areas where attention to detail resulted in a successful implementation. This paper considers the successes and problems encountered in a large PACS installation.
