Picture Archiving and Communication Systems..

Digging up my closet, searching for a poster I came across a rare relic that never used to leave my pocket, my Walk-men. The progress has been so, that walk-men shifted to disc-men and now we have the revolutionary Ipods with us.  Who knew one day that listening to music would be this easy and would also accompany the pleasure of viewing whatever one can listen. Progress in print media has also seen a substantial change. Where people resort to e-books these days; documents, reports and statistical files all can be accessed and soft-copied.

Medical reports and conditions with pictorial representations have been made readily available to people and health care organizations over a wide variety of subjects is made possible with the use of PACS.  PACS stand for Pictorial Archiving and Communication systems. The basic idea is to store, archive medical conditions and access them at any instant. A distributed workforce delivering efficient workflow with a comprehensive solution, all done in a web based portal is the sole idea behind PACS. To make this work, Digtial Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DIGICOM)  is the platform that PACS make use of. 

Remote sensing is the aspect that helps practitioners diagnose and give proper knowledge to people seeking information all around the globe. This makes viewing of subjects and conducting of tests possible for professionals because at the end of the day the mind does not know what the eye does not see. By- Shahzad
