Abstract :
We have developed a CDA (Clinical Document Architecture) based PACS, by which we can search and refer to the patient´s medical images and information with few restrictions of time and space for diagnosis and treatment. We´ll make more effort to develop the application which insures the better quality of medical images. The medical image history manages the patient´s image flies and medical records like film chart in connection with time. This trial will contribute to the reduction of the economical loss caused by unnecessary devices and improve the quality in the medical services. The demand on the development of the program which refers to the medical data quickly and keeps them stable will be continued by the medical institute. This will satisfy the client´s demand and improve the service to the patients in that the program will be modified from the standpoint of the users. The system is trying to keep user-oriented policy and to apply the benefit of the analog system to the digital environment. It is necessary to lead the public to the better understanding that the systematic management and referring of the medical images is as important as the quality of the images. And, target model of this research limited to HIS (Hospital Information Systems) of hospital have 200 beds.
