The beauty of PACS systems is that it is possible to view medical images made in a variety of modalities, including MRI, EEG, EKG, CT and even X-rays. PACS workstation software allows you to see these images in a higher resolution than every before – and even see images of internal organs in virtual 3-D space as you would a CAD model. These virtual models can even be color coded for greater clarity. written by Wayne Hemrick
Since that time, there have been incredible drops in the cost of computer hardware, particularly processors, RAM and most importantly, storage media. A RIS PACS system can archive vast quantities of digital files on a server, eliminating the need for large storage rooms with endless rows of file folders. In addition, using their PACS workstations, clinic personnel can create complete patient archives that include not only image data from MRI or CAT scans, but also sound files of dictation, word documents and other data – all stored in one place and easily retrieved when needed. written by Wayne Hemrick
It was more than dollars that the Center has saved; PACS systems have also saved nearly 7,000 physician work-hours per year. Using PACS workstations, physicians were able to reduce the time between initial patient visit and case dictation to under three hours. written by Wayne Hemrick
Any personal computers that are tied into the hospital or clinic LAN can function as PACS workstations, provided that the correct software is installed and you have high-resolution monitors. Using a current PC as a PACS viewer saves money and makes better use of existing resources. PACS systems make it possible for any authorized person to view medical images on these PACS viewers; they can even be shared with colleagues anywhere in the world over the World Wide Web for purposes of consultation. written by Wayne Hemrick
Spotting an abnormality on a mammography workstation or PACS web viewer does not necessarily mean you have cancer. Your doctor will conduct further tests if an abnormality is found on any PACS workstations. A biopsy of the abnormality is also done to confirm if the cells are cancerous. written by Wayne Hemrick
Another positive about this particular radiology web viewer is its wide variety of possibilities for implementing a browser-based viewer. Each image file is sent by the server to perform an end user interaction. These range from files such as HTML to Java Scripts. Some data may also invoke plug-in code, although this can potentially reduce the portability of a PACS viewer. written by Wayne Hemrick
While we don't know much of what causes it, there are ways for you to get properly screened before the cancer takes root. This would include self examinations, mammography viewer, or PACS workstations. Here are some methods and steps to get you screened for breast cancer.
