Health On the Net (HON): From PACS to the World Wide Web From PACS to the World Wide Web The constant improvement in computer power and performance currently offers convenient and efficient means of manipulating images, graphics and movies on off-the-shelf workstations. The trend toward integration of multimodality clinical documents from patient records follows naturally. Images and graphs are certainly the most important part of the complementary information that must accompany the text and numerical data. There is, however, a possibility to include sounds and voice messages, together with all the other modalities. In medicine this could certainly help to convey heart murmur or sounds, but could also offer a convenient way of including vocal messages and comments. These new possibilities will certainly change the way physicians use workstations for direct communication. The computer industry will soon offer means of interactive communication between remote users, through computer workstations that will open a completely new area in co-operative computing and remote consultation scenarios in medicine. More than the technology itself, it is a complete change in the behaviour and work habits that can be observed in the medical community.
