Abstract

This paper discusses the need to make available images of cardiac data that can assist in digital cardiac modeling research. Such researches are increasing in number to assist in the understanding of the heart. In modeling a digital heart, images from MRI, CT scans, and other scans such as PET and SPECT can be used. These images are difficult to come by for researchers who are not in the medical areas. Thus, any of such available data stored in an on-line system can be made available to other researchers. The design and development of this on-line system is discussed in this paper.
