| Popis: | To make picture archiving and communication systems (PACS) a practical reality for small-scale structures, it appears necessary to build a network that integrates and optimises production management, analysis and storage of images, and to include the ability to communicate with other similar remote structures. To solve the various technical problems related to small-scale PACS implementation, MicroPACS, a local area network, was developed around PC-like microcomputers. Every necessary function is assessed and implemented, including a centralised data-base, a distributed image bank, different storage levels and a specific task for image exchanges. An additional protocol was also developed for remote consultation through ISDN. Standardisation of image encapsulation and a point-to-point link between remote sites ensure easy transfers between heterogeneous local networks or bases and integrity of local databases. |
