acr-nema/tcp

American College of Radiology and the National Electronic Manufactures Association.

Description

ACR-nema seems to be a port that is used in medical radiology machinery to allow communication of information between machines in a consistent manner.

Protocol

Notes

The standard reference document that started to establish this protocol is the ACR-NEMA digital Imaging and Communications Standard 300-1985, later (NEMA 300-1988). The standard work was given a new name (DICOM). Information can be found via ftp ftp.xray.hmc.psu.edu/dicom_docs. (I've had difficulty doing the web browser thing to it, because it expects a full username@hostname). The whole spec seems to be available either in postscript or hqx files.
