연구의 목적은 PACS에서 의료영상정보를 운영과 관리를 준수하고 환자의 개인정보를 익명처리하기 위한 필요성과 관리와 관련된 「의료법」, 「개인정보 보호법」과 「생명윤리법」에서 의료영상정보의 개인정보 관련법의 쟁점에 대한 내용을 연구하여 법의 일원화와 정합성을 위한 필요성에 대해서 문제를 제기하고 논의하고 제안하고자 한다. 의료영상정보와 관련된 정보 활용하기 위해서는 법적으로 명확한 적용을 위해 「의료법」 혹은 「생명윤리법」으로 일원화하고 법체계를 법의 정합성을 고려할 필요가 있다. 「개인정보 보호법」 및 「생명윤리법」에서 일치하지 않은 쟁점들로 인하여 충돌할 가능성이 있어 의료영상정보의 활용 및 이용을 위한 기본적인 공통분모를 찾아내어 법의 조화를 이루는 법의 체계적인 정합성이 요구된다. 추가적으로 의료영상정보 및 개인정보의 민감할 사항을 구체적이고 체계적으로 보호하고 관리할 수 있도록 임상에서 의료인 및 관리자들이 현실적으로 법을 적용하고 용이하게 실천이 가능한「의료정보보호법」을 제정할 필요성을 고려하여 추진하는 것도 필요하다.

Malaria is a tropical disease caused by protozoans of the Plasmodium genus. Delayed diagnosis and misdiagnosis are strongly associated with higher mortality. In recent years, a greater importance is attributed to Plasmodium knowlesi, a species found mainly in Southeast Asia. Routine parasitological diagnostics are associated with certain limitations and difficulties in unambiguous determination of the parasite species based only on microscopic image. Recently, molecular techniques have been increasingly used for predictive diagnosis. The aim of the study is to draw attention to the risk of travelling to knowlesi malaria endemic areas and to raise awareness among personnel involved in the therapeutic process.
