The archival tools used for digital images in advertising are not to fulfill the clinic requisition and are just beginning to develop. The storage of a large amount of conventional photographic slides needs a lot of space and special conditions. In spite of special precautions, degradation of the slides still occurs. The most common degradation is the appearance of fungus flecks. With the recent advances in digital technology, it is now possible to store voluminous numbers of photographs on a computer hard drive and keep them for a long time.
A self-programmed interface has been developed to integrate database and image browser system that can build and locate needed files archive in a matter of seconds with the click of a button. This system requires hardware and software were market provided.
There are 25,200 patients recorded in the database that involve 24,331 procedures. In the image files, there are 6,384 patients with 88,366 digital pictures files. From 1999 through 2002, NT400,000 dollars have been saved using the new system.
Photographs can be managed with the integrating Database and Browse software for database archiving. This allows labeling of the individual photographs with demographic information and browsing. Digitized images are not only more efficient and economical than the conventional slide images, but they also facilitate clinical studies.
广告中用于数字图像的存档工具无法满足临床需求，且仍处于发展初期。大量传统摄影幻灯片的存储需要大量空间和特殊条件。尽管采取了特殊预防措施，幻灯片仍会出现退化。最常见的退化是出现真菌斑点。随着数字技术的最新进展，现在可以将大量照片存储在计算机硬盘驱动器上并长期保存。
开发了一个自编程接口，以集成数据库和图像浏览器系统，只需点击一下按钮，就能在几秒钟内建立并定位所需的文件存档。该系统所需的硬件和软件均为市场提供。
数据库中记录了25200名患者，涉及24331例手术。在图像文件中，有6384名患者，共88366个数字图片文件。从1999年到2002年，使用新系统节省了40万美元。
可以使用集成数据库和浏览软件对照片进行管理，以便进行数据库存档。这允许用人口统计学信息对单个照片进行标记并浏览。数字化图像不仅比传统幻灯片图像更高效、更经济，而且还便于临床研究。
