Tsutomu Gomi, MASAKAZU AKAHORI, Yoshihiro Kitoh · Japanese Journal of Radiological Technology · 1998
We constructed a multipurpose network system and connected our digital fluorography(DF)system to it. A PC-UNIX computer was used as a file server and file transfer protocol(FTP)server. Still images generated by the DF system were transferred from the gateway computer connected to the DF system to the file server with a DICOM storage service. Images can be easily retrieved and modified by utilizing the functions that the network system makes it possible to share, such as the file-sharing system and the on-line viewer of the WWW browser. Thus, it should be easy to expand the network and improve its quality in the future. Our network can also be easily and effectively connected to other hospital network systems.
