An image management system (), includes a PACS system. The PACS system () includes a PACS server () coupled to a communications network () and a plurality of PACS workstations () also coupled to a communications network (). Each PACS workstation () is configured to receive two dimensional image information and produce a three dimensional image rendering on the PACS workstation (). The three dimensional image rendering is communicated to the PACS server () for storage and later retrieval.

Method and apparatus for secondary capture of 3D based images on a picture archival and communications (PACS) system

An image management system ( ), such as a PACS system is disclosed. The PACS system includes a PACS server ( ) coupled to a communications network ( ) and a plurality of PACS workstations ( ) also coupled to a communications network ( ). Each PACS workstation ( ) is configured to receive two dimensional image information and provide incremental volume rendering on the PACS workstation ( ) while the two dimensional image information is being received.

Method and apparatus for real-time 3D image rendering on a picture archival and communications system (PACS) workstation

A workstation includes a regression testing program which tests application programs developed on the workstation using stored test scripts. A test directory tree is maintained to mirror a source code directory tree, and the test directory tree is employed to select the test scripts to be used in testing any newly compiled application programs.

Automated regression testing of workstation software

A universal interface apparatus for use with any of several different imaging systems for facilitating a plurality of different imaging modalities, the interface including at least function icons in a function navigation space and a workspace, each of the function icons corresponding to a process which is common among all of the imaging modalities, the interface also accessing data tables corresponding to specific workflow protocols for medical facility radiologists and/or for a medical facility in general, the tables identifying function icons and other icons for guiding a technologist through a properly orchestrated imaging process.

Multiple modality interface for imaging systems

A graphic workstation receives digitized medical images and the user creates textual information that is to be displayed on the images. Instead of overlaying the text, the text data is blended with the image data such that the text appears semi-transparent and when displayed the underlying image data may be seen. The medical image may be fully restored from the blended image by a calculation based upon the blended image, the text data and alpha.

Display of text on medical images

A graphic workstation receives digitized medical images and the user creates textual information that is to be displayed on the images. The text along with associated properties are packaged as a data structure along with a set of properties, and the data structure is passed through a pipeline having a series of formatters. The formatters are easily configured by the user to modify the properties of the text data structures as they flow through the pipeline prior to being rendered on a display.
