Abstract

The term Image Workstation refers to the image display and processing systems of a PACS which are located within a diagnostic imaging department. They shall give access to pictures and data according to the work routines, thus being the interface between a PACS and its users. The paper will describe the role of the diagnostic image workstation. Evidently critical but most important will be all functions concerning image handling and display because of the principal differences between a physical image ('hard image') and a displayed image ( 'soft image'). The paper will therefore be focussed on the evaluation of required image functions and their general technical solution.
