In today's world, hospitals need to take notice of the changing medical service environment. While the demand for medical services continues to grow, due to the growth of the aging population throughout the world and due to the increase in chronic diseases, stricter government regulations are pressuring hospitals to reduce costs. Due to the increased demand of medical services, the expectations of patients have also increased.  Patients want the best care and expect hospitals to have the most advanced medical services.

Under such pressure, hospitals are responding by trying to improve the quality of their medical services.  At the same time, hospitals are looking for ways to reduce costs, enhance patient experiences and maintain a high level of employee/administration engagement.  To do so, hospitals are adopting various types of infrastructure systems and digital devices. In particular, the utilization of Medical Imaging Devices has increased along with the distribution rate of the Picture Archiving Communication System (PACS). The importance of high-quality Medical Imaging Device is expected to increase even further, as the adoption of telemedicine services continues.
