Abstract

The implementation of an Information System of medical images with safe Internet access and with an interface which allows visualization, analysis, processing and advanced visualization, will enable the radiologist to access those clinical cases he wishes to consult, both within the hospital Intranet and also from an extranet.
Freeware software has been used for its implementation and the analysis, processing and advanced visualization module is easily integrated in the existing equipment of the organization. This system also follows for the production of multi-centre epidemiological studies.
An analysis of radiological data from patients with head and neck cancer were carried out in order to validate the system. This system has automatic link devices with the medical modality equipment for a safe and restricted acquisition, storing, and access. This allows its integration within the existing RIS at the medical centres.
