Abstract

ASR-NEMA standards will play a pivotal role in the difficult transition between today's imaging department and the completely PACS-based department of the future. This paper explores the practical implications of ACR-NEMA standards in PACS systems by focusing on the critical issues of compatibility, evolution, flexibility, and practical implementation. It is shown how a typical radiology department can develop a viable PACS strategy for improving its effectiveness through use of ACR-NEMA standards.
