Abstract

Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) fully optimizes post-scan order processing for further processing a selected set of imaging data that has been processed by medical devices such as CT scanning devices and MRI scanning devices according to user-defined priorities. Imaging devices collect and store in distributed storage units on the network. User-defined priorities include minimum response time, minimum cost, and minimum network traffic. User-defined priorities are arbitrary in some preferred embodiments.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to medical imaging, and more particularly to systems, software, methods and apparatus for substantially optimizing post-scan order processing in picture archiving and communication systems (PACS). Background technique [0002] In recent years, computer technology has brought advanced uses of computer systems to hospitals and clinics. In most large hospitals, a hospital information system has been installed. Also, medical imaging devices including x-ray computed tomography (CT) scanning devices, positron emission CT scanning devices, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) devices, and digital X-ray devices have been widely used. [0003] Although imaging devices are widely used, image data stored in many institutions is not managed by computer systems. Medical images are still viewed on traditional hard copy media such as film. For conventional medical image management, the following issues are relevant. It usually ...
