recognition of printed or written characters

P
PAP
PACS Archive Provider. A PACS Archive
Provider (PAP) acts like a Service Class
Provider (SCP) in that it receives studies.
However, it differs from an SCP in that the
PAP can automatically register a study as
PACS archived if the study originates from a
source that the PACS stores to and remembers
from, without having to queue the study for
archiving back to the source. The PAP can also
parse the private tags of the incoming DICOM
objects to determine HIS verification and
study status.
PSARMT
PACS Store and Remember Migration Tool.
This tool enables a site to migrate from an
external PACS system to IMPAX by allowing
the external system to act as an archive server
to IMPAX.
S
scheduled worklist
A worklist that you can set to occur on specific
days, that holds the studies for a round, clinic,
or conference. You can prepare for a round
by taking snapshots of study layouts with the
Snapshot tool and saving the snapshots in a
scheduled worklist.
SCP

SCP accepts images for processing, processes
