title: [Development of a radiation therapy information system and linked medical image server using techniques of WWW-DB].
abstract: We developed management system for medical information such as radiation therapy information and associated medical image information. Features of the system are to browse medical information with web browser through network. The system was constructed by open source software, which made proprietary client software unnecessary. Clinical studies suggested that the system proved useful in terms of paperless managemet. In addition, useful features are visibility and portability to browse medical information using PDA (Personal Data Assistant) via wireless LAN (Local Area Network). We also proposed a new approach which can contribute to remote areas by providing medical information using the Internet.
