Abstract
Heart-related disease is one of the leading causes of death in the US Will a well- engineered CIIMS assure better services at a cardiology department? What are the major components of a CIIMS?

This CIIMS contains four major components: image viewing and manipulation, image analysis, reporting, and integrity checking, each of which is described in sequence in the paper. Remarks on implementation and performance are also briefly included.
