PACS
IMT offers Picture Archiving and Communications Systems (PACS) client solutions including iPhone support and new JPEG2000 PACS! We also offer digital data archiving storage solutions. Call (877) 761-9770 for more information.
Introduction
Typically a PACS network consists of a central PACS server which stores a database containing the images, and of multiple clients that can retrieve and display these images on medical imaging software. The images are stored in DICOM format. The modalities (MRI, CT, PET, Ultrasounds, etc…) send the images to the PACS Server by using a DICOM “push” (DICOM C-Store). The server and the clients communicates by using the DICOM protocol (DICOM C-Store or Query & Retrieve). The clients display the images by using a medical imaging software: a DICOM viewer.
Each computer in a PACS network are identified by their network address (IP address), a communication port (TCP/IP port) and a name (AETitle): each computer is a DICOM Node in the PACS network. IP address, TCP/IP port number and AETitle are the information required to connect each DICOM Node to the PACS network.
