Abstract
A system and method for managing medical image data items. A large image manager is used to store medical image data items external to a core PACS. Representative objects are generated and provided to the PACS to be incorporated into the core PACS workflows. The representative objects can be generated by extracted pixel data and metadata from the medical image data items. The representative objects are generated in a format compatible with the protocol used by the PACS workflows. Requests sent to the PACS for medical images can be re-routed to the large image manager to provide the requested images.
