Abstract：Objective To establish the weight value of PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication System) score system by using analytic hierarchy process (AHP). Methods The framework of PACS score system was developed by different experts, the weights of each index were determined by AHP. Results The score system was composed with 5 first-class indexes and 23 second-class indexes. The 5 first-class indexs included comprehensive ability of suppliers, the products maturity and progressiveness, the security and reliability of the system, the accuracy of the system ,and the system performance, with the weights being 0.0917, 0.2247, 0.2326, 0.1810, 0.2700 respectively. The all weights of various indexes met the consistency test, and were acceptable. According to the compound weight of second-class indexes, the top 5 of second indexes were "workspace performance” “the system storage capacity and picture archiving performance” “image quality and display performance” “the integrity of system data” and “the security strategy of system data”. Conclusion AHP method is feasible and effective for establishing weight values of PACS score system.
