One of the three processes used in imaging systems in health care is interpretation of the images.

• A. Acquisition
• B. Storage
• C. False
• D. True

Answer: (D)

Interpretation is a distinct stage in imaging systems. In health care, imaging workflows typically involve three core processes: acquiring the image data from the modality ( acquisition), securely storing and organizing those images ( storage), and evaluating or interpreting the images to extract meaningful clinical information ( interpretation). Because clinicians or radiologists analyze the images to derive diagnoses or findings, interpretation is indeed one of the three essential processes. The other two—acquisition and storage—are separate steps focused on obtaining the image and preserving it for access, not on analyzing it. Saying the statement is true correctly reflects how imaging workflows are structured.
