Information relevant to radiological applications is commonly managed by several autonomous medical information systems including hospital information systems (HIS), radiological information systems (RIS), and picture archiving and communications systems (PACS). In this report, we explain the need to coordinate these systems and to provide some framework in which they can exchange information. In the first half of this report, we describe the integration of a PACS system into a hospital operation. Next, we present the interfacing methods between the HIS and the RIS, and between the RIS and the PACS. Two methods are further detailed for the communication between the RIS and the PACS (1) the triggered database to database transfer, and (2) the query protocol. The implementation of the first method successfully allows RIS reports, procedure and patient demographic information to be displayed at the request of the user along with the associated images at a PACS workstation. The query protocol allows a PACS to dynamically query RIS information. It will be eventually integrated into the design of a scientific multimedia distributed medical database system built on top of the HIS, the RIS, and the PACS.
与放射学应用相关的信息通常由多个自主的医学信息系统管理，包括医院信息系统（HIS）、放射学信息系统（RIS）和图像存档与通信系统（PACS）。在本报告中，我们解释了协调这些系统的必要性，并提供了一些它们能够交换信息的框架。在本报告的前半部分，我们描述了将PACS系统集成到医院运营中的情况。接下来，我们介绍了HIS与RIS之间以及RIS与PACS之间的接口方法。对于RIS与PACS之间的通信，进一步详细说明了两种方法：（1）触发式数据库到数据库传输，以及（2）查询协议。第一种方法的实施成功地允许在用户请求时，在PACS工作站上显示RIS报告、程序和患者人口统计学信息以及相关图像。查询协议允许PACS动态查询RIS信息。它最终将被集成到基于HIS、RIS和PACS构建的科学多媒体分布式医学数据库系统的设计中。
