With the rapid development of digital imaging modalities in medicine, there is an increasing need for an efficient management and archival of medical images in digital form. Picture Archiving and Communication Systems (PACS) are becoming an essential component of medical imaging equipment, allowing for medical images to be accessed and stored directly in digital form. This paper describes a hospital-wide PACS currently under development at the University Hospital of Geneva, based on an open architecture, regrouping equipment from different vendors in a distributed topology. The image archival is organized in multiple locations geographically distributed in the hospital. The PACS database is fully integrated with the concurrent Radiology Information System (RIS) and Hospital Information System (HIS). A standard image storage format called the PAPYRUS format was developed for the storage of medical images from a variety of imaging modalities. To provide a more uniform user interface on a variety of different workstations, a common platform for image display and manipulation called OSIRIS was developed.
随着医学数字成像模式的迅速发展，对医学图像的数字形式进行高效管理和存档的需求日益增加。图像存档与通信系统（PACS）正成为医学成像设备的重要组成部分，使医学图像能够以数字形式直接访问和存储。本文描述了日内瓦大学医院目前正在开发的全院范围的PACS，它基于开放架构，以分布式拓扑结构整合来自不同供应商的设备。图像存档在医院地理分布的多个地点进行组织。PACS数据库与并行的放射学信息系统（RIS）和医院信息系统（HIS）完全集成。为存储来自各种成像模式的医学图像，开发了一种名为PAPYRUS格式的标准图像存储格式。为在各种不同的工作站上提供更统一的用户界面，开发了一个名为OSIRIS的图像显示和操作通用平台。
