Abstract

The objective of this paper is to develop mobile-based PACS(Picture Archiving Communication System: mPACS) for diagnostic medical image service available via Android-based mobile smartphone. The proposed mPACS provides an integrated platform for mobile application of diagnostic medical images stored in hospital PACS, and allows the smartphone to store, retrieve, manipulate and transfer the diagnostic medical images. Then, the mPACS platform includes the following features for use in the Android framework (i. e., diagnostic medical image processing) : transfer protocols between PACS, mPACS and smartphone, image format converter, JPEG and JPEG2000 coders, text and avatar search, and etc. This mPACS is shown to be useful and effective in providing a solution for mobile-based diagnostic medical image service.

본 논문의 목적은 진단의료영상 서비스를 위한 안드로이드 기반의 mPACS (mobile-based Picture Archiving Communication System)을 구현하는 데 있다. 제안된 mPACS는 병원 PACS에 저장된 진단의료영상을 모바일 기반에 적용할 수 있도록 통합플랫폼을 제공하며, 사용자가 원하는 진단의료영상을 통합플랫폼에서 저장/검색/조작/전송하는 것을 허용한다. 여기서, mPACS 플랫폼은 안드로이드 기반의 체계(즉, 진단의료영상처리)를 위하여 PACS ${\leftrightarrow}$ mPACS ${\leftrightarrow}$ smartphone 간의 전송프로토콜, 영상포맷변환기, JPEG/JPEG2000 부호화기, 텍스트와 아바타 검색등을 포함한다. 이 mPACS는 모바일기반의 기기가 PACS시스템의 진단의료영상 서비스가 가능 한 솔루션을 제공함에 있어서 매우 유용하고 효과적인 것으로 나타났다.
