Monitor choice impacts diagnostic accuracy and throughput
CLEVELAND - The selection of a soft-copy display monitor for diagnostic radiology is one of the more important elements in putting together a PACS because it directly affects how a radiologist works. A study presented at the SCAR meeting on Saturday found that cathode ray tube (CRT) monitor specifications like luminance can have a major impact on radiologist productivity.

Multifacility worklists optimize patient care
CLEVELAND - Healthcare mergers and acquisitions over the past two decades have resulted in patient services being provided at different institutions. One of the challenges for administrators of these healthcare groups is providing images, as well as the results of both current and prior exams, to radiologists working in disparate locations.

Security planning can prevent PACS attacks
CLEVELAND - When is the right time to start thinking about a PACS security strategy? According to Samuel Dwyer, Ph.D., the planning should begin before the PACS is installed. But even when there's already an operational system in place, it’s not too late to produce a security schema.

Preparing for the worst: PACS disaster recovery
CLEVELAND - If a structure is damaged by flood, fire, or earthquake, chances are insurance will cover at least part of the cost of rebuilding. But help is hardly automatic for PACS disasters. In the event a PACS network is damaged or destroyed, a comprehensive disaster recovery plan might be the only thing separating an institution from catastrophic loss.

CRT soft-copy display: Is the last link the weakest?
CLEVELAND - With more healthcare institutions adopting PACS for image distribution, just how reliable are the cathode ray tube soft-copy displays used for image interpretation? The answer depends a great deal on the program an institution chooses for quality assurance of its workstation displays.

Workflow engineering essential for PACS implementation
CLEVELAND - Successful PACS implementation is more than just installing new equipment and software, flipping a switch, and having the technology run flawlessly. For PACS to achieve its goal of reducing cost and improving throughput, workflow itself must be reengineered to reflect the new technology.
