One of the issues seriously considered in hospital management is filing medical images. With today's achievement in medical sciences and computer networks, old stereotypes used to take pictures of radiology and the cost of buying and maintaining these films are no longer essential. Picture archiving and communication system (PACS) transmits, stores, retrieves and displays medical images at different points. PACS in medical systems includes necessary software and hardware used to control and manage medical images.
Operation of this system results in reduced storage costs associated with archiving, imaging films storage and communication with hospital information system (HIS) and also provides ability for remote training and diagnostics. Also, by using the teleradiology, it helps physicians around the world to achieve the same and updated information at the same time. As a result, the expansion of its application will be vital in the promotion of public health.
