A Research for Storage Grid Architecture of the Digital Medical Image / 实用放射学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To resolve the sharing of the images which are dispersed in multiple mini-PACS in one hospital or in the distributed PACS in the different hospitals.Methods The grid technology and the medical image network were integrated to research some key technologies on a medical image storage grid.Results Basing on the services provided by grid and considering the hospital's situation,two layers architecture of storage grid that was adapted with the sharing character of the medical information were put forward.Using the services provided by the storage grid,the dynamic storage extension was realized.Conclusion The medical image storage grid can integrate multiple storage systems in the image network.It supports the effective usage of the storage system and transparent accessing for users.
