Quo vadis PACS?
What will become of PACS was a central issue at the Annual Scientific Meeting Management in Radiology (MIR) of the European Society of Radiology. Will PACS will gain in importance beyond radiology or integrate into HIS? Meike Lerner, managing editor of European Hospital Magazine hopes the discussion will continue at RSNA 2011.
