Abstract
The Department of Radiology at the University of Florida has set a goal of “filmless” Radiology in an ambulatory care center to be completed in 1993. Networks, archival systems, displays, and workstations are being installed in a sequence that facilitates evaluation of clinical usefulness, acceptability of image presentation, limitations, and optimization of both transfer speed and retrieval. A variety of tools measure the performance of different protocols and media in networks, collect and analyze the volume of images produced for archival, and predict the pattern of retrievals. Observation and questionnaires are used to collect requirements for composition of images on monitors including the number and types of requests for previous images. Various displays and workstations are being evaluated to determine the requirements for different types of images.
