PATIENT AND USER ORIENTED DATA ARCHIVING
First Claim
1. A method for archiving data in at least one of a plurality of storage modules, the data being associated with at least one medical examination, a first of said plurality of storage modules comprising a short time storage module, a second of said plurality of storage modules comprising a long time storage module, the long time storage module having a fast access long time storage sub module and a slow access long time storage sub module, the method comprising the steps of:
- defining a set of rules for executing the method for archiving;
defining a parameter for controlling the method for archiving; and
archiving data depending on the set of rules and on the parameter.

Abstract
A method and apparatus for archiving medical data in one of two or more storage modules, comprising a short time storage module with fast access and a long time storage module with slow access. The method comprises the steps of defining at least one set of rules for executing the method for archiving and defining at least one parameter for controlling the method for archiving; wherein the method depends on the at least one set of rules and/or on the at least one parameter.
