PACS for radiology

We describe a PACS system being developed for the radiation oncology department of Harper Hospital. The system is compatible with the DICOM 3 standard. The system consists of two broad parts: the database and communication system, and the viewing station(s). The system can be used to view patient images, import images from and export images to, other DICOM compatible systems, and check port films.
