title: PACS linked to EPR.
abstract: We developed a new PACS linked to Electronic Patient Record system (EPR). It was a hospital-wide PACS storing all the radiological examinations. The images and reports were linked on EPR. The concept of navigation servers and segment servers was introduced for prefetchig and quick displaying. After the start of operation, increasing retrieval indicated its effectiveness on practical work in spite of remaining delivery of radiographs.
