Abstract

Web-based standard radiology images were successfully piloted and initially deployedto over 1300 users for on-sight intranet access. User feedback from the pilot yieldedpositive reports for ease of use, convenience and acceptable format. Technical deploymentof thin client technology was found to be complex, time consuming and replaced with analternate vendor strategy. One month implementation utilization data suggests moderateuse of standard images. Recommendations yielded interest in pursuing web access toenhanced digital radiology images and off-sight access.
