Summary
We describe a PAC system for ophthalmologic application. The system has been developed at the LfM, RWTH-Aachen in cooperation with the Department of Ophthalmology, University Hospital Aachen for two purposes:
-
1.
Validation of novel technical PACS concepts in clinical environment and
-
2.
Support for the introduction of new approaches to diagnostic image analysis.
First results from clinical implementation show, that the ophthalmologic PACS establishes the digital infrastructure required for a joint development, a daily application and an efficient validation of novel procedures for the quantitavie and qualitative evaluation of retinal angiography image sequences.
