title: The primary interpretation workstation: information beyond image data.
abstract: With the advent of picture archival and communication systems (PACS), the importance of design surrounding primary review workstations has become apparent. To help acceptance of filmless medical imaging, workstations must be developed that serve the needs of both radiologists and referring clinicians. This report will discuss integral requirements of workstation design, including information creation, medical management, medical knowledge, and enabling technologies.
