More Information
Summary:An image reviewing station for a picture archiving and communication system (PACS), having two functions of user interface and display of an image wherein base memory, image processor, and display memory architecture is used. The digitized image data at any size from any different modalities is stored in base memory in an original format, and read-out signals are processed appropriately in the image processor responsive to the command signals input by the user. The processed image data is then stored in a display memory before being supplied to a display via a digital-to-analog converter for the display. It provides the user with extensive, concise and easy interactive image manipulation and processing capabilities.
