An image processing system having a server which applies image processing to a medical image sent by a subscriber via a generally available network, such as the “internet”, and sends the results of the image processing back to that subscriber or to another subscriber as instructed upon verification of the legitimacy of the instructions. In this manner, the processing load is reduced and medical images are made more readily and easily accessible.
