title: Diagnostic image workstations for PACS.
abstract: Image workstations will be the 'window' to the complex infrastructure of a PACS with its intertwined image modalities (image sources, image data bases and image processing devices) and data processing modalities (patient data bases, departmental and hospital information systems). They will serve for user-to-system dialogues, image display and local processing of data as well as images. Their hardware and software structures have to be optimized towards an efficient throughput and processing of image data.
