The ingredients seem to exist for switching from film-based radiology to digital radiology utilizing the concept Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS). Why has this not happened? What are the barriers limiting the diffusion of PACS into health care? This was the theme of the 1st Japan-Nordic Symposium in PACS, which was held in Tokyo, March 29-30, 1990. Over 40 radiologists and technical specialists in PACS participated. The topics discussed ranged from the present status of PACS in Japan and the Nordic Countries, to functional specifications and user requirements for PACS, to organizational and other changes brought about by PACS and to teleradiology as a solution for communication of images over wide distances. The symposium was quite successful and will be followed by a 2nd symposium in Finland in the summer of 1991.
利用图像存档与通信系统(PACS)的概念,似乎具备了从基于胶片的放射学转向数字放射学的条件。为何这种转变尚未发生?限制PACS在医疗保健领域普及的障碍有哪些?这是1990年3月29日至30日在东京举行的第一届日本 - 北欧PACS研讨会上的主题。40多位PACS领域的放射科医生和技术专家参加了会议。讨论的主题涵盖了PACS在日本和北欧国家的现状、PACS的功能规格和用户需求、PACS带来的组织及其他方面的变化,以及作为远距离图像通信解决方案的远程放射学。此次研讨会非常成功,1991年夏天将在芬兰举办第二届研讨会。
