Abstract

This paper presents an overview of medical imaging strategies with particular emphasis on research work associated with computerized chromosome analysis. The limitations of systems currently in use are discussed together with the future development of a medical imaging database. It is considered that such databases can be effectively integrated by new image oriented methods to provide a means for organizing a large mass of heterogeneous, varying, pictorial and symbolic data into a structured environment which can subsequently be rapidly synthesized, classified and presented in an organized efficient manner in order to facilitate optimal decision making in a health care environment. The thrust in this paper is to discuss the major issues relating to the development and implementation of an object-oriented database management system in a networking environment which should greatly speed-up and extend the opportunities offered for chromosome analysis.
