Storing medical images in the cloud makes distribution faster for patients who want to share images with their physicians, regardless of where the physician is located, according to a preliminary report on the Radiological Society of North America's Image Share project presented April 30 at the American Roentgen Ray Society (ARRS) annual meeting in Vancouver. Image Share is a project involving five different academic institutions, including University of California, San Francisco; University of Chicago; Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn.; University of Maryland in Baltimore; and Mount Sinai Medical Center in New York City.
