title: Starting to think digitally: evaluation of web browser-based presentation of images at a Rad Path conference in a traditional film-based environment.
abstract: Images have traditionally been projected from film to a large-screen television at the weekly Rad Path conference at University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey-New Jersey Medical School. An alternative system was developed to digitally transfer computed tomography (CT) scans and magnetic resonance images (MRI) into a standard PC format, and present them at the conference in a hypertext markup language (HTML) document via a laptop computer and liquid crystal display (LCD) projector. Resident and attending physicians were given a questionnaire about the differences between the two modes of presentation. Their responses are presented here.
