Abstract

With the spread of mobile phones and wireless networks, medical imaging needs to be accessible outside the hospital for patients. We develop the mobile PACS platform that allows doctors or patients to store, search, query and transfer medical images for their convenience. This system is a mobile based platform that patients DICOM images can be viewed from the hospital PACS server, then they can be converted according to smart standardization. For this, we designed the platform to transfer the data between PACS, mPACS and users. Also we suggest to use DICOM transformation processing to display DICOM images in PACS server.

핸드폰과 무선망의 보급이 보편화되면서 사용자가 이동 중 또는 병원이 아닌 외부에서 무선통신망을 이용하여 의료영상을 조회하고자 하는 요구가 급속히 늘어나고 있다. 이에 본 논문은 모바일 PACS 플랫폼을 개발하여 스마트폰을 사용하는 의사와 환자가 원하는 의료영상을 저장 검색 조회 전송할 수 있는 시스템을 설계하고자 한다. 제안한 시스템은 병원의 PACS 서버로부터 환자의 DICOM 영상을 조회하고, 이를 스마트폰 표준에 맞도록 변환한 후, 영상을 전송할 수 있는 모바일 기반 PACS 플랫폼이다. 이를 위해 PACS와 mPACS 그리고 사용자 간에 이루어지는 데이터 전송에 대한 플랫폼을 설계하였고, PACS 서버에 존재하는 DICOM 영상을 스마트폰에서 디스플레이하기 위한 DICOM 변환과정을 제안하였다.
