What is PACS?

A PACS, or picture archiving and communication system, is essentially a medical imaging technology used for storing, retrieving, presenting, and sharing images produced by medical hardware, such as x-ray. Radiology professionals used a PACS to store all diagnostic imaging files. From there, any member of that medical team can quickly search through this information and retrieve images as desired.

Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) is a protocol that enables the sharing of images and other medical information. DICOM enables PACS technologies. The main purpose of a PACS is to make to not only make the viewing of images easier, but also for better management of important medical data.
