One of the major and demanding problems in the management of a modern department of Radiology is undoubtedly the organization of a radiologic archive. Its management has been increasingly difficult in last years both for the increase in procedures and the number of radiologic exams. At the Radiology department of UCSC, since some years, this problem has been tackled. Major objectives have been identified in focusing on responsibilities, global management and planning of radiologic film retrieval and archiving integrated with health care activities (scheduling of admissions and exam appointments, reporting, discharge). Based on these assumptions, the archive has been divided into 3 sections, each dynamically integrated with the others. The 3 archives should be integrated with RIS and supported by information technology. RIS is considered the starting point of the process. In fact the system ensures communication to the archiving workstation and to the radiology room of patient admission and consequent execution of the exam which involves image production. This user-friendly procedure enables consistent information between RIS and archiving system and correct association of images to the patient medical report, for subsequent consultation.
