Review of the American College of Radiology--National Electrical Manufacturers' Association standards activity.

The American College of Radiology and the National Electrical Manufacturers' Association published the ACR-NEMA Digital Imaging and Communications Standard in 1985. Implementations are just now becoming available. During this time, working groups of the committee responsible for the standard have been very active. An expanded version of the standard was published in 1988 and a third version, to be known as Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM), is being prepared for publication in 1992. This paper briefly reviews the history of the standard, describes recent activities, outlines the extensions planned for the DICOM standard, and describes the participation of the committee in international radiological imaging standards activities.

An update on American College of Radiology-National Electrical Manufacturers Association standards activity.

The American College of Radiology-National Electrical Manufacturer's Association (ACR-NEMA) Standard was published 5 years ago. Implementations are just now becoming available in a form other than a prototype. Though this seems like a long interval between the initial work and results, the organization responsible for the standard, the ACR-NEMA Digital Imaging and Communications Standards Committee, has not been idle. Much of the progress which has been made is the result of cooperative work involving industry, the Committee and its Working Groups (WG), and the medical imaging user community. This paper will briefly review the history of the development of what is now a family of ACR-NEMA standards, describe the current activity of the WGs, and indicate in what directions the WGs are headed for both new and updated standards.
