METHOD FOR TRANSFERRING A NUMBER OF MEDICAL IMAGE DATA RECORDS AND SYSTEM FOR MANAGING IMAGE DATA RECORDS

A method is disclosed for transferring a number of medical image data records from a first computation facility to a second computation facility, with the second computation facility sending a transmission confirmation to the first computation facility after transmission is completed. In at least one embodiment, before the image data records are transmitted, a first checksum is determined for all the image data records and sent with the image data records; the first checksum is extracted at the second computation facility and is compared with a second checksum determined from the transmitted image data records in the same manner as the first checksum; and the transmission confirmation indicates a failure if the checksums do not correspond.
