Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to present a control theory and a fault tolerance algorithm developed for real time monitoring and control of acquisition and preprocessing of computed radiographs for PACS and Intensive Care Unit operations. This monitoring and control system uses the event-driven, multilevel processing approach to remove computational bottleneck and to improve system reliability. Its computational performance and processing reliability are evaluated and compared with those of the traditional, single level processing approach.
