“…Volumes have been written describing the radiologist's reading behavior; the radiologist has been interviewed, watched, videotaped and timed [e.g. Beard 1990, O'Malley 1988, McNeil 1988, Mun 1988. It would seem that every aspect of the radiologist's behavior has been examined.…”

Many functional, technical and perceptual considerations must be met before a workstation will be adequate for primary diagnosis. The focus of this paper is the functional aspect of the workstation. Specifically, we are concerned with determining how images and data must be presented to the radiologist, for the purpose ofprimary diagnosis, under the constraints imposed by the digital workstation. We have developed an interface that is being used to acquire detailed information about the current diagnostic process. The purpose of this interface is twofold. First, this interface enables us to monitor the image and information access patterns of the radiologists in the process of interpreting films. This information will be used to automate the presentation of images and information to the radiologist in future cases. Second, this interface provides a continuously evolving tool to capture the physical attributes, or navigational cues, necessary for the radiologist to develop a mental model of the operation of the diagnostic workstation. This report describes the current operation andfuture goals of this inteiface.

“…Medical imaging is not done in a continuous, uniform fashion during a working day. As a baseline study showed (Mun 1988) there are peaks in image generation which may be several hile it would be rk which could the average data transmission requirement, such a network may not be able to meet the peak requirements, and would result in prolonged waiting times, a majior source of user dissatisfaction. It is also not difficult to design for peak data rates, but this is likely to result in a more expensive network the bandwidth of which is underutilized.…”

The volume of image and other data to be moved around an IMACS network requires a mean data rate which is not excessive by modern network standards. The mean data rate, however, ignores protocol overhead and the bursty nature of image transmission.IMACS operation requires software which makes network operation transparent to the user. That is, the user should not have to know where the requested data is. The network software should be integrated with the database so that all data movement is done smoothly.Another aspect of barriers the network poses to IMACS is the way in which devices interface to the network. Custom designs are costly, and standards are still being developed. This paper discusses the problems posed by network operation, and presents some of the solutions possible.
