(Ebook) PACS and Imaging Informatics: Basic Principles and Applications, Second Edition by Dr. H. K. Huang(auth.) ISBN 9780470373729, 9780470560525, 0470373725, 0470560525
The definitive guide to PACS ? now with more clinically applicable material In recent years, the field of picture archiving and communications systems?PACS?and image informatics has advanced due to both conceptual and technological advancements. This edition of PACS and Imaging Informatics: Basic Principles and Applications addresses the latest in this exciting field. In contrast to the previous edition, this updated text uses the framework of image informatics, not physics or engineering principles, to explain PACS. It is the only resource that thoroughly covers the critical issues of hardware/software design and implementation in a systematic and easily comprehensible manner.To strengthen and update the book, the author: Emphasizes clinical applications of PACS and integrates clinical examples throughout the text Reflects the many changes in the field, with new chapters on Web-based PACS, security, integrating the healthcare enterprise, clinical management systems, and the electronic patient record Uses the framework of imaging informatics to explain PACS, making the book accessible to those without advanced knowledge of physics, engineering, math, or information technology Explains how PACS can improve workflow, therapy, and treatment With the most systematic and thorough coverage of practical applications available, this text is the complete guide for all those involved in designing, implementing, and using PACS. Professionals in medical and allied health imaging informatics; radiologists and their technical staff; surgeons and oncologists and their teams; medical and electronic engineers; medical informaticians; and fellows, graduate students, and advanced undergraduates will all benefit from this valuable resource."An excellent book for people involved in the design, implementation, or simply the operations of PACS and an appropriate textbook."?From a review of the previous edition in IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology"The strength of the book lies in the vast experience of the author, who has implemented PACS at numerous institutions in the United States and abroad."?From a review of the previous edition in RadiologyContent: Chapter 1 Introduction (pages 1–30): Chapter 2 Digital Medical Image Fundamentals (pages 31–61): Chapter 3 Two?Dimensional Medical Imaging (pages 63–105): Chapter 4 Three?Dimensional Medical Imaging (pages 107–146): Chapter 5 Four?Dimensionality, Multimodality, and Fusion of Medical Imaging (pages 147–173): Chapter 6 Image Compression (pages 175–215): Chapter 7 Picture Archiving and Communication System Components and Workflow (pages 217–235): Chapter 8 Communications and Networking (pages 237–268): Chapter 9 Industrial Standards (HL7 and DICOM) and Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise (IHE) (pages 269–300): Chapter 10 Image Acquisition Gateway (pages 301–323): Chapter 11 PCS Server and Archive (pages 325–347): Chapter 12 Display Workstation (pages 349–385): Chapter 13 Integration of HIS, RIS, PACS, and ePR (pages 387–407): Chapter 14 PACS Data Management and Web?Based Image Distribution (pages 409–439): Chapter 15 Telemedicine and Teleradiology (pages 441–472): Chapter 16 Fault?Tolerant PACS and Enterprise PACS (pages 473–517): Chapter 17 Image/Data Security (pages 519–558): Chapter 18 PACS Clinical Implementation, Acceptance, and Evaluation (pages 559–597): Chapter 19 PACS Clinical Experience, Pitfalls, and Bottlenecks (pages 599–628): Chapter 20 DICOM?Based Medical Imaging Informatics (pages 629–647): Chapter 21 Data Grid for PACS and Medical Imaging Informatics (pages 649–684): Chapter 22 Multimedia Electronic Patient Record (ePR) System (pages 685–708): Chapter 23 Multimedia Electronic Patient Record System in Radiation Therapy (pages 709–733): Chapter 24 Multimedia Electronic Patient Record (ePR) System for Image?Assisted Spinal Surgery (pages 735–773): Chapter 25 Computer?Aided Diagnosis (CAD) and Image?Guided Decision Support (pages 775–806): Chapter 26 Integration of Computer?Aided Diagnosis (CAD) with PACS (pages 807–859): Chapter 27 Location Tracking and Verification System in Clinical Environment (pages 861–891): Chapter 28 New Directions in PACS and Medical Imaging Informatics Training (pages 893–926):
