Digital Imaging: a Primer for Radiologists, Radiographers and Healthcare Professionals

It offers readers a clear, easy to understand introduction to the world of medical digital imaging.

It will help you understand the big picture - the systems, networking, information, and, perhaps most importantly, the changes in work practices that will inevitably come with a PACS system. If your hospital has or will have a PACS system (whether you're a radiologist, radiographer, nurse, network engineer, admin manager, director of radiology, surgeon, or other healthcare professional), this book will give you an accesible insight into PACS, making no assumptions about prior knowledge of principles, terms or jargon.
