We constructed a network in our nuclear medical facility that connected a UNIX workstation (nuclear medicine data processor), DOS/V machine and Apple
Macintosh
computer. Data can be transferred using a FTP (Fetch 2.1) program and are displayed using NIH Image on the
Macintosh
computer. Fetch 2.1, FTP program for
Macintosh
, performs well although it is inexpensive shareware. The NIH Image program was used to display image data on the
Macintosh
computer. This program is freeware distributed by the National Institutes of Health (NIH). It supports a variety of image data formats, including ACR/NEMA 2.0. Furthermore, the network was employed to shorten the time required for data conversion using FD. We can readily transfer image data to the presentation software without deterioration in image quality. In conclusion, we believe that this network decreases working time and increases data processing power.
