Integrating Mac Systems into a Medical IT Infrastructure

This white paper is intended to illustrate how budget-constrained organizations can more affordably acquire the imaging workstations they need. The report shows how organizations can integrate a Mac-based OsiriX workstation into a real-world medical IT setting, with expectations that it will perform satisfactorily on a daily basis. The paper outlines the steps required to deploy such a workstation within a Microsoft Windows-centric environment. And it addresses topics that radiology departments everywhere must consider, including legal requirements, IT and patient data security, and display quality.
