PACS stands for Picture Archiving and Communication System. It is used to Capture, Store, Distribute and Display medical images. Electronic images and reports are transmitted digitally via PACS, eliminating the need to manually file, retrieve and transport film jackets.

PACS breaks down the physical and time barriers associated with traditional film-based image retrieval, distribution and display.            

PACS comprises a network of computers, which include:

•  The modality (MRI/CT etc.) computers,

•  Additional computers such as readily available personal computers (PCs) or advanced servers

•  Remote viewing stations &

•  Peripherals such as Printers and Storage Devices

All of these seamlessly communicate with each other and exchange data just as in any other computer network.
