Dear PACS Insider,
The U.S. military has been one of the pioneers in utilization of PACS, beginning with its landmark Medical Diagnostic Imaging Support (MDIS) program in the early 1990s and progressing to the original Digital Imaging Network - PACS (DIN-PACS) project later in the decade.
And as the most recent iteration of its PACS program -- DIN-PACS II -- winds down, the Department of Defense is preparing to launch its successor. While much about DIN-PACS III will remain the same, there will be a few changes.
Get all of the details on the plans for DIN-PACS III in this month's Insider Exclusive, which you can access before the rest of our AuntMinnie.com members by clicking here.
