Integration of a voice processor machine in a PACS.
The final stage of development of a clinical picture archiving and communication system (PACS) at the University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) department of radiological sciences consists of building a documentation package of a complete radiological consultation. In this paper, we present the technological aspect of the integration of a digital voice server in our PACS environment. This component improves the timely delivery of the diagnostic report with the images. The interface of this voice system is integrated into the PACS display station. It offers the user the capability to easily dictate and/or listen to radiological reports, while viewing and/or performing image processing operations at the display station.
