With contributions from leaders in the field of PACS, this user-friendly guide addresses the introductory concepts, computing fundamentals, advanced imaging technologies, and future opportunities. It also offers invaluable concepts and tools that facilitate the financial evaluation of PACS, making it a great resource for those looking to plan for PACS implementation, assess institutional needs, write an RFP, and compare vendors' quotes.

An overview of the latest medical imaging standards.
A discussion of security issues as they relate to PACS, especially regarding HIPAA.
An introduction to current information on PACS workstations, including the impact of new software and hardware on radiologists.
