SAGIMA: an easy-to-use and low cost WEB-PACS system for an optimal access and management of a digital angiography database

Over several years, digital angiography studies from the Hemodynamic Unit of the Hospital Clinico Universitario (Valencia, Spain) have been stored in CD's using first revisions of DICOM 3.0. In order to centralize the management and facilitate the access to these studies and reports, an easy to use and low cost WEB-PACS system that we have called SAGIMA has been developed in close collaboration between the BET Research Group of the Universitat Politecnica de Valencia and the Cardiology Department of the Hospital Clinico Universitario de Valencia
