Embodiment Construction

[0029]In medical imaging, a picture archiving and communication system (PACS) is a computer or network dedicated to storing, retrieving, distributing, and displaying medical images. The entire PACS processes images from different devices, such as fluoroscopy, ultrasound, X-rays, magnetic resonance (MRI), electron emission tomography (PET), computed tomography (CT), and others. PACS replaces hard copy based means of managing medical images, such as film archiving. It extends the possibilities of traditional systems by providing off-site viewing and reporting capabilities. Usually a PACS network consists of a central server which stores a database containing images. The server is connected via LAN or WAN to one or more clients, which provide and / or use the aforementioned images. Client workstations can use local peripherals to scan image films into the system, print image films from the system and interact with displays of digital images. Modern radiology equipment provides i...

Abstract

A system and method for recording medical image data onto a digital recording media. The system and method comprising a medical imaging modality interface (28) for receiving a plurality of video images from a medical imaging modality. A video capturing device (42) is coupled to the medical imaging modality for capturing the plurality of video images from the medical imaging modality and converting the plurality of video images into a plurality of digital images. A media writer (44) is coupled to the video capturing device (42) for recording the plurality of digital images onto a removable media. A computer (46) having a CPU (48) installed thereon is coupled to the medical imaging modality interface (28), the video capturing device (42) and the media writer (44) for controlling operation of the system. And a user interface (26) is coupled to the computer (46), the medical imaging modality interface (28), the video capturing device (42) and the media writer (44) for allowing user input in controlling operation of the system and method.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application is based on and claims the benefit of US Provisional Application No. 60 / 631,263, filed November 27, 2004, and is incorporated herein by reference. Background technique [0003] The present invention generally relates to a system and method for recording medical video image data on a portable digital recording medium such as a CD or DVD. In particular, the present invention relates to a system and method for receiving medical image and video data, processing the medical image and video data, and converting the medical image and video data to be storable on a portable digital recording medium. [0004] X-ray film has been the predominant multifunctional medium for acquiring, storing and distributing medical images. However, storage and distribution of film often requires considerable cost and storage space. X-ray imaging equipment was followed by various methods for imaging body tissue, such as ultrasoun...
