We highly recommend a RAID system: for example, you can install 4 identical hard disks in the MacPro, and format them as a RAID 5 system.
The PACS Server software needs to be robust, working flawlessly 24/7, with a powerful database engine, capable of storing millions of DICOM images.
The modalities (MRI, CT, PET, Ultrasounds, …) send the images to the PACS Server by using a DICOM “push” ( DICOM C-Store). Typically a PACS network consists of a central PACS server which stores a database containing the images, and of multiple clients that can retrieve and display these images on medical imaging software. Expansion: write your own plugins to extend the integration with any protocols/systems, including EMR, RIS or HIS.Web access through built-in web server, built-in HTML5 viewer compatible with any OS.
Seamless integration with any DICOM viewers, through the DICOM protocol.Fully compatible with DICOM protocol (C-Move, C-Store, C-Find, C-Get, WADO).
Fully compatible with Mac hardware and software.Unlimited number of simultaneous clients.Based on OsiriX DICOM engine and Database (SQLite) engine.You can use OsiriX as a PACS server with these benefits: Other computers, equipped with OsiriX, can store and retrieve images directly from the PACS server. Medical equipment can automatically store the medical images on the PACS server. Install OsiriX as a PACS server What is PACS server?Ī PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication System) server is a computer for the short- and long-term storage, retrieval, management, distribution and presentation of medical images.
