摘要: An image management system for use in conjunction with an ultrasound machine. The system comprises an input port coupled to the ultrasound machine for receiving the video output signal generated for the ultrasound images and a frame buffer for digitizing and storing the video output from the ultrasound. The system includes a switch for routing the video output signal or the video signal generated from the digitized ultrasound images to the monitor of the ultrasound for display. The system allows the original video signal to be displayed without introducing artifacts. The system includes storage-devices for archive and retrieval of the digitized ultrasound images and playback on the ultrasound monitor, The system also includes a communication port for interfacing the ultrasound with a PACS or a networked ultrasound management system. According to another aspect, the image management system includes an interface to allow client machines to access patient information and images stored in the local archive database via the Internet.
