We present our experience during the first 21 months of using hospital-wide network technology and digital archiving in connection with digital radiology in the Radiology Department at the SMZO/Danube hospital in Vienna. This means digital generation, archiving and distribution of radiographs as well as monitor reporting embedded in HIS and RIS. The clinical use of PACS demands full integration of all subsystems and modalities in a digital way, as was first realized at the Danube Hospital. With this approach, a reduction in radiation dose, improved communication and thus a reduction in the length of hospital stay and health care cost are attained.
