Using the photo CD in academic radiology.
Photo CD technology has expanded significantly since its introduction a few years ago. Because it is not strictly considered interactive multimedia, it has been largely overlooked in the medical field, but it has tremendous capabilities for image storage, retrieval, and transfer. Images can be used for both educator-assisted conferences and self teaching. Adding audio technology to the photo CD expands the self-teaching concept. The equipment needed is simple and relatively inexpensive. The time required to learn how to create photo CDs is short, and they can be produced at almost any institution.
