Abstract

The design and implementation of a small scale image archival and processing workstation for use in the study of digitized neuroradiologic images will be described. The system is designed to be easily interfaced to existing equipment (presently PET, NMR and CT), function independent of a central file server, and provide for a versatile image processing environment. The aim of the project is to serve the research needs of a small group of physicians, rather than providing a department wide picture archival system.
