Abstract
After the establishment of web-based image distribution, three challenges for image distribution can be identified today. Firstly, PACS (picture archiving and communication system) and the distribution of radiological images and reports need to be integrated with the emerging electronic medical record. Secondly, report and image data should be available on mobile devices like PDAs (personal digital assistants) or smartphones in the future. Thirdly, future systems must be available not only to transmit sectional images, but also to allow access to three- and four-dimensional data that are produced by multidetector CT and modern MR scanners.Keywords
