Abstract
Traditionally, the majority of patient data has been housed on paper. With the advent of the personal computer, many institutions have moved toward electronic versions of portions of this record. Most physicians, at some point in their practice, have used computer-based laboratory and pathology reporting systems. Although the computerization of the radiology record makes sense, the task is enormous and faces difficulties in communication and integration.
