Database Management System for a digitized Medical Image

Medical images are critical component of the healthcare system with great impact on the society’s welfare. Traditionally, medical images were stored on films in developing country, but the advances in modern imaging modalities made it possible to store them electronically. Thus, this paper gave and developed a novel framework for storing, retrieving and processing digitized medical images. Digital medical informatics and images are commonly used in hospitals today because of the interrelatedness of the radiology department and other departments, especially the intensive care unit and emergency department, the transmission and sharing of medical images has become a critical issue. This work provides vivid solution to the problem encountered and the difficulties associated with the challenges of large memory utilization attributing to storing patient’s medical image information conveniently.
