TEASS: evaluation of PACS in three European hospitals: evaluation setup and first results

摘要

Abstract: One of the aims of the EC subsidized project EurIPACS, is to provide evidence for cost- effectiveness of PACS. To this aim, assessment studies are carried out in three hospitals. These hospitals all implement a partial and/or small-scale PACSystem in the period 1992- 1994. In order to be able to compare the data of the assessments, and to facilitate generation of guidelines, each of the three hospitals uses the same evaluation protocol. This paper describes this evaluation protocol. !20
