[Construction of DICOM-WWW gateway by open source, and application to PDAs using the high-speed mobile communications network].
The author constructed a medical image network system using open source software that took security into consideration. This system was enabled for search and browse with a WWW browser, and images were stored in a DICOM server. In order to realize this function, software was developed to fill in the gap between the DICOM protocol and HTTP using PHP language. The transmission speed was evaluated by the difference in protocols between DICOM and HTTP. Furthermore, an attempt was made to evaluate the convenience of medical image access with a personal information terminal via the Internet through the high-speed mobile communication terminal. Results suggested the feasibility of remote diagnosis and application to emergency care.
