The use of digital imaging has substantially grown in recent decades, in traditional services, new specialties, and departments. The need to share these data among departments and caregivers necessitated central archiving systems that can communicate with various viewing applications and electronic medical records. The need to aggregate and share imaging data from various departments promoted the development of enterprise-imaging (EI) solutions that replace departmental silos of data with central healthcare databases. This promoted the development of modern vendor-neutral archive (VNA) systems.

Patient data de-identification allows healthcare organizations to share data for research purposes without the potential of violating HIPAA. By de-identifying data, researchers can safely share information, such as imaging data, with other organizations to advance medical research and treatment.
