A radiology picture archiving and communication system (PACS) workstation is a standalone image processing device that functions as part of a PACS network. It is used to receive, store, transmit, view, and manipulate medical images from modalities such as X-ray, MRI, ultrasound, and nuclear medicine, as well as integrate with hospital or laboratory information systems.
This category of device is regulated as a medical device component within a PACS, typically requiring compliance with standards for image handling, data security, and interoperability. It does not include controls for operating imaging equipment directly and is intended solely for image management and post-processing tasks in clinical radiology workflows.
