Three financial models of cost justification are discussed: the investors approach, the acquisition and operating cost approach and the differential operating cost approach. Realistic areas of cost reduction are pointed out and the claim that high technology of diagnostic procedures is the major cause of health care cost increases is examined. Although a cost justification based solely on operating cost reduction may not be fully convincing it is pointed out that PACS technology will become essential for the future survival of a diagnostic imaging department.

In contrast to PACS, an on-line system, we consider an off-line system called ISAC (Image Save and Carry), and discuss its necessity and possibility of practical use in the medical field. The basic idea of ISAC system is to save or file both images and characters in a portable recording medium and to transport a huge amount of digital data in an off-line way. Because the compatibility is most important and inevitable for common and wide use, we focus on the standardization of I/O devices. We also propose the combined system of PACS and ISAC, and discuss its advantages.
