  • Title: [Digital image information systems in radiology--status and developmental trends].
    Author: Greinacher CF, Müller K, Fuchs D.
    Journal: Digitale Bilddiagn; 1984 Sep; 4(3):87-104. PubMed ID: 6332705.
    Abstract:
    A digital image information system is expected to increase the efficiency of image acquisition and reporting. In addition to the requirements of the radiology department the requirements of the wards and the theatres must also be taken into account. The image information system has to be linked with the administrative work flow throughout the department. Therefore, it must provide interfaces to a radiology management system. In the United States such an image information system is referred to as "Picture Archiving and Communication System" = PACS. A suitable systems concept and the requirements of a real system are pointed out. The available technical solutions are discussed as well as the probable trends of future developments.
