Figure 8 shows the menu of the Web portal. The patient in this case has access to three VM images. Two of these
images (the ones whose name starts with Radiology) can be used for the radiology use case while the third one is designed to support the personalized medicine use case.
For the radiology use case, one VM is designed to run the DICOM viewer provided on most DICOM CDs. The DICOM viewer is loaded by clicking on one of the virtual CD icons (see Figure 9 ). By loading different radiology scans into this VM, the patient will be able to reproduce his or her entire medical history (as far as radiology is concerned) to caregivers anywhere in the world. A second radiology related VM contains a specialized DICOM viewer that can also visualize DICOM data in case a viewer has not been embedded in the hospital-provided DICOM CD (or DVD).
