Managing x-ray films is a difficult problem in a hospital. Advances in digital imaging, high speed networks and high fidelity displays make it possible to develop an image management and communication system for a hospital. As many of the technical problems are solved, many operational problems remain. Experience with a prototype installation became the basis for a much more comprehensive implementation of a fully digital filmless imaging support system in a number of hospitals. The use of IMAC technology will bring about profound changes in the radiology community; physicians, administrators, manufactures of imaging systems and the users of radiology service, the patients.
在医院中，管理X光片是个难题。数字成像、高速网络和高保真显示器的发展使医院能够开发图像管理与通信系统。随着许多技术问题得到解决，诸多操作问题依然存在。一个原型安装的经验成为了在多家医院更全面地实施全数字无胶片成像支持系统的基础。IMAC技术的应用将给放射学界带来深刻变革；包括医生、管理人员、成像系统制造商、放射科服务使用者以及患者。
