Cohen MD, Rumreich LL, Garriot KM, and Jennings SG

J Am Coll Radiol 2(4):11 (2005) PMID 17411826

A complete picture archiving and communication system (PACS) installation is one of the largest projects a radiology department will undertake. Although technology issues are important, they often draw focus away from many other significant issues This paper describes in detail all of these other necessary components that need to be addressed if a PACS installation is to be relatively trouble free, provides guidelines for successful PACS implementation, and details pitfalls to be avoided.
