This would be the case. It's a 100 MBit LAN. The site will only be
accessible
at the department itself. Altough I get your point.

I've to look at this, but the problem is that not all the images have the
same size...
some are really big and other less (depending on the resolution of the
radiographic image)
and to make the document still readable and the images still visible, the
radiologist still
has to give an image width and height
