title: Implementing a MIRC interface for a database driven teaching file.
abstract: This poster describes the feasibility of integrating an existing database driven teaching file with the Radiological Society of North America's (RSNA) Medical Imaging Resource Center (MIRC). MIRC is the product of an RSNA sponsored initiative to enable medical institutions to share their electronic medical content (images, text, and multimedia) by creating a distributed repository accessible from the Internet. A description of MIRC's query/storage service architecture is provided along with an overview of the author's experience with implementing a storage service front end for an existing, database driven teaching file system.
