| Abstract | |
This work presents the study and implementation of a system aiming the indexing and visualization of the images of nuclear magnetic resonance and computerized tomography from a radiology information system (RIS), allowing the retrieval and availability of the exams (results and images), through an ethernet net for visualization beginning with an interface developed to a browser. The exams may be recovered either through their register number (RGHC) or the patient\'s name. The images employed in the work follow the DICOM 3.0 (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine) and JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group) patterns. For the indexing of the exams that present images in JPEG, an interface was developed to include the information required to guarantee the consistency of the process. For the exams presenting the DICOM 3.0 format, information was extracted automatically from the heading and filed in the database. The system has a friendly interface for the user, it may be rapidly incorporated to the project of an PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication System). The implementation was idealized to serve the Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina de Ribeirão Preto, of the Universidade de São Paulo (HCFMRP/USP), based on its radiology information system (RIS). The results demonstrated that the time of retrieval of the images is satisfactory and considered good by evaluation qualified of the doctors. (AU) | |
