Medical Imaging Environment – A Multi-Agent System for a Computer Clustering Based Multi-display

Abstract

This paper presents a solution to minimize a problem that normally arises from the huge amount of images that a radiologist usually has to interpret. A multi-agent system that implements a multi-display for medical imaging based on computer clustering of normal personal computers is therefore described, as well as the multi-agent architecture that caters for the system evolution. An evaluation study was performed and its results are presented.
