Main objectives and characteristics of computerized radiological image handling in a radiology department, homogeneously integrated with other information typologies, are discussed. The extension of the present DREAM system to image handling functionalities is in progress. The activities are based on the collaboration between the "Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore (UCSC), Istituto di Radiologia". Hopital Cantonal Universitaire de Genève-Centre d'Informatique Hospitalier (HCUG) and Gesi aiming at the integration of "Osiris", image handling information system implemented by HCUG with DHE middleware implemented by Gesi and UCSC which represents the functional and information core of the entire information system.
