IMPAX Insights #6 - IMPAX® Teaching Files
Most academic radiologists have large teaching files on film, gleaned from clinical cases encountered
on a daily basis. Film-based images stored in filing cabinets are heavy, cumbersome, expensive to
duplicate and vulnerable to damage. To make this rich resource more accessible for teaching, reference
and research purposes, clinicians leverage PACS technology as an 'electronic filing cabinet' to make
storage and sharing of digital images easier and more accessible. Learn how your academic institution
can make the most of this valuable feature.
