At Lund University Hospital we're currently using a FreeBSD system that is a middlestation between a Toshiba nuclear modality and our PACS archive. It's purpose so far is to convert between various image formats to DICOM, using a slightly modified application from Eric Nolf (XMedcon). A Modality Worklist Query is asked to Mitra's BROKER, for insertion of data in the DICOM object using a modified package of CTN from Mallinckrodt Institute of Radiology. After the DICOM object has been created it is send to our PACS archive. Everything works really good, and no one could be happier than me, as it was due to my suggestion we did chose FreeBSD. As I also be- came fully responsible for the project, it was a comfort using this great OS. This FreeBSD server will eventually be a gateway between other im- age systems as well, and I have no worries that it will not be able to handle this too! To summarize it all... The OS fully serves our purpose. If it will serve your is another story though. Good luck!

Using free BSD in medical equipment
Dear Sir/Madam I work for a medical company situated in Andover England. We are currently looking at various software packages that we could use as a platform for a graphical user interface on a piece of medical equipment that is in an early design stage. I have considered various Microsoft and UNIX based packages and consequently found FreeBSD suitable for our requirements. However I have one obstacle in my way, in order to convince my colleges I need to find documented evidence of some commercial ventures (not internet hosting or similar activity), typical examples: customer information service, domestic satellite receiving equipment, pocket PC etc. I would be grateful if you could forward me any web links or information you may have.

There's a small list on the FreeBSD website: http://www.freebsd.org/gallery/gallery.html It contains more than 1800 commercial organizations and more than 800 non-profit organizations. I'm sure you will be able to find something appropriate there.
