A distribution system for digital images from diverse image sources. Incorporating a local area network in an imaging environment.

This paper proposes a unified image-processing and viewing system as a viewing station and initially as the central file server in a unified digital image distribution and processing network, linking various digital image sources through a high speed data link and a common image format. The network allows for viewing and processing of all images produced within the complex and for locating viewing stations in any number of convenient areas. The system proposed can be slowly expanded to include all the digital images produced within the department of institution.

A modular computer system for the nuclear medicine/ultrasound laboratory: a multidisciplinary proposal.

In many nuclear Medicine studies computer-controlled graphic displays are an absolute necessity for obtaining meaningful results. Design criteria developed by an interdisciplinary scientific panel are presented to achieve a display system based on television technology; an instrument interface employing list mode using bubble-memory storage technology, thus having a low information-loss rate; and flexible modular software easily tailored to the specific needs of both clinicians and technicians. The panel considers a minicomputer system with broad, flexible applications to be a valuable tool, particularly in doing those function studies that only can be done via nuclear medicine techniques. The final specifications ultimately allow the selection of a vendor and hospital installation, even though all criteria are not currently achievable.

A modular computer system for the nuclear medicine/ultrasound laboratory.

Computer-controlled graphic displays are a necessity in many nuclear medicine studies. The authors propose using a set-up consisting of three modules: (a) a display system based on television technology; (b) an instrument interface employing list mode and having a low information loss rate; and (c) flexible modular software which can easily be tailored to the needs of both radiologists and technicians. The authors consider a mini-computer system with broad, flexible applications to be a valuable tool, particularly for those function studies which can only be done by means of nuclear medicine techniques.
