The principles of PACS were first discussed at meetings of radiologists in 1982. Various people are credited with the coinage of the term PACS. Cardiovascular radiologist Dr Andre Duerinckx reported in 1983 that he had first used the term in 1981. Reprinted in IEEE Computer Society Proceedings of PACS'82, order No 388. Dr Samuel Dwyer, though, credits Dr Judith M. Prewitt for introducing the term.
