title: [PACS-2000].
abstract: Digital radiology and picture archiving and communication systems (PACS) with filmless reporting at electronic workstations are a great challenge for radiology. There are the possibilities of improving the quality of diagnosis, of working more efficiently and of achieving economic savings, but on the other hand the position of radiology within the hospital may be put at risk. The technical means for the implementation of PACS are largely available. Wide acceptance in the market depends inter alia on the availability of open systems with standardized interfaces.
