Introdução: A adoção de um Sistema de Arquivamento e Distribuição de Imagens (PACS, do inglês Picture Archiving and Communication System) é condição fundamental para a estruturação de um ambiente radiológico sem filme. Um PACS é composto basicamente por equipamentos e sistemas informatizados interconectados em rede, direcionados à aquisição, armazenamento (ou arquivamento), recuperação e apresentação de imagens médicas aos especialistas responsáveis por avaliá-las e laudá-las. A computação em nuvem vem ao encontro dos PACS e surge como uma maneira de simplificar o compartilhamento de imagens e

Abstract:

This paper describes the application of Network II.5, a modelling tool, to the development of a model for a Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS). The model is used to evaluate the performance of a PACS through computer simulation. The work includes interpretation of the ACR-NEMA Standard for Digital Imaging and Communications. This standard adheres to the ISO-OSI reference model which separates the functions of device communication into well-defined layers. In this work, the Application/Presentation, Session, and Transport layers are treated in detail, in fact, the model structure

Abstract:

High resolution imaging devices have made a digital medical archiving system feasible. The large volumes of information generated must be stored and retrieved at high data rates in order to insure the timely diagnosis of patients. This creates some unique technological challenges that must be resolved, including the problem dealing with multiple vendor products interacting in one environment. The high speed interface card design presented in this thesis is able to deal with different computer host busses as well as different interprocessor communication protocols. The ACR-NEMA standard has bee

Abstract:

Picture Archiving and Communications Systems (PACS) provides an integration of digital imaging information in a hospital, which encompasses various imaging equipment, viewing workstations, database archive systems, and networks. The integration requires proper communication protocols to connect devices from different vendors. In this dissertation, new communication protocols are defined based on previous experiences on PACS developments. Defined protocols are intended to facilitate the development of PACS which is capable of interfacing with other hospital information systems. Protocol specifi

Abstract:

A Picture Archive and Communication System (PACS) is a health information technology that facilitates the electronic storage, transmission, presentation and processing of digital medical-imaging datasets. The benefits of PACS have been well-documented. It provides a means to replace traditional film-based workflows and their inherent limitations. Referring clinicians’ acceptance is a critical factor in the overall success of a PACS implementation; and given the financial implications of project failure, research into physician acceptance and meaningful use is crucial.

Abstract:

This thesis considers the effects of Picture Archive and Communications Systems (PACS), on both patient radiation doses and patient management. PACS is a relatively new technology which acquires, transmits, and stores radiological images digitally. This thesis investigates the doses which are required to produce radiographic images which are acceptable to radiologists and referring clinicians, and compares these doses with those required for the film/screen systems which they are replacing. A review of the literature shows that despite claims of dose reductions, very little good evidence exist

The South African Department of Health (DoH) has recognised the potential benefit of the Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) to address the health needs of rural patients who do not have access to specialised medical care. PACS allows specialist remote access to patient information to assist the diagnosis and treatment process remotely. South African healthcare institutions have been implementing PACS

Abstract:

As non-institutional digital image collections expand into social media, independent non-professional image curators are emerging, actively constructing alternative naming conventions to suit their needs in a social collecting environment. This project considers how independent user-curators are developing particular sense-making behaviors as they actively contribute names to large, unstructured social image collections. In order to capture and explore this evolving language adaptation, Pinterest names are analyzed using a matrix composed of Panofsky’s three strata of subject matter, Rosch’s l

Radiology is rapidly changing in the 21st century and globally there is a transition of radiology departments to digital imaging technology. The major challenge confronting radiology practices is to obtain cost savings and productivity gains once PACS is established. The purpose of the study is to undertake an incremental cost analysis of PACS compared to a conventional radiology department. Cost savings of the system was also determined in terms of productivity gains.
