The apparent advantages of a DIMS are often cited by those involved in medical information-management research. The promise of a high-speed electronic image-management system that could increase a department's patient throughput and improve patient care is most attractive. Every major manufacturer of medical imaging equipment has a group working to develop such systems. Many problems remain to be solved before such systems can be acquired, installed, and made operational. This paper has summarized the significant technical problems yet to be solved.
参与医学信息管理研究的人员常常提到数字图像存档与通信系统（DIMS）的明显优势。一个高速电子图像管理系统有望提高科室的患者接待量并改善患者护理，这一点极具吸引力。每个主要的医学成像设备制造商都有一个团队致力于开发此类系统。在购置、安装并运行这类系统之前，仍有许多问题有待解决。本文总结了一些有待解决的重大技术问题。
