ADA Technical Report No. 1048 for the Attachment of DICOM Dataset Using E-Mail (2011, R2021) - E-BOOK

(E-BOOK) This report provides a technical specification based on the DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine) version 3 Standard as it applies to dentistry with the goal of increasing interoperability between practitioners. In particular, this report highlights the benefits of the ZIP File over E-mail Interchange Profiles of the DICOM Standard for dentists or specialists who don't share the same image data repository, but need to exchange patient data in a fast and secure manner.

The full DICOM version 3 Standard is available for download on the webpage of the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA), http://medical.nema.org. The DICOM Standard provides details and specific explanations that are beyond the scope of this ADA technical report (2011, R2021).
