title: PACS disaster recovery procedures--evaluation in a clinical environment.
abstract: Failures of picture archiving communication systems are not a common event and are even less commonly documented. Planning in advance for such an event can have an enormous effect on the overall impact on clinical operations. This report provides insight into the planning required for disaster recovery and how the impact on clinical operations can be minimized if this planning takes place in advance.
