Certified architecture in Picture Archiving and Communication Systems (PACS) and Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) is not just a technical requirement, but a critical part of providing high-quality healthcare services. Certifications like HL7, ISO 9001, ISO 13485:2016, CE Mark, and GDPR make sure these systems meet strict standards for how different systems work together, quality management, safety, and data protection.
