Case: Network Protocols

A 55-year-old male patient presents with persistent headaches and is referred for a CT scan of the brain. The images need to be transmitted from the CT scanner to the PACS for the radiologist to review. The radiologist is located in a different facility and will access the images remotely. The patient's electronic health record needs to be updated with the scan results and associated details.
