    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Clinical physics; digital.; computer-assisted; Picture Archiving and Communication Systems; computed radiography; radiography; effective dose; radiation dosage; measurements; biomechanics; dislocating patella; musculoskeletal; patellofemoral joint; Knee joint; radiology; tomography; medical instrumentation; Klinisk fysiologi; radiologi; tomografi; medicinsk instrumentering;

    Abstract : The overall aim of this study was to develop and evaluate a measurement system for computed radiography (CR) and Picture Archiving and Communication Systems (PACS), permitting measurements of long distances and angles in and between related images. The developed measurement system, which was based on the QUESTOR Precision Radiography (QPR) system, was applied to the weight-bearing knee with special reference to the dislocating patella.

  4. 2. IT in Healthcare - Artefacts, Infrastructures and Medical Practices

    Author : Nina Lundberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; IS and Healthcare; artefact; infrastructure; interpretive field study; actor-network theory; PACS;

    Abstract : Globally, health care is making huge investments in information technology. Several studies illustrate that IT implementations have been fraught with problems. Everywhere, the problems appear to be similar, irrespective of the national health care system. The full potential of these technologies is not achieved, and their use is thus limited. READ MORE

  5. 3. A walk into the digital world : a long and winding road

    Author : Kent Fridell; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Radiology departments are changing rapidly due to the implementation of digital image management and PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication Systems). When new information and communication technologies are implemented, there are organizational effects. READ MORE

  6. 4. Contrast-enhanced ultrasound in children

    Author : Alvaro Torres Urzua; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Background: Contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) is a diagnostic tool that is used for many applications in adults. Many of these applications are considered “off-label” use but still play an important role in diagnostic imaging. READ MORE
