At the University of Washington Medical Center (UWMC) we are using a DICOM server written in Common Lisp [1]. DICOM is a network protocol used for medical images and other medical data. This was originally developed as part of the Prism radiation therapy treatment planning system [2][3], which was completely written in Common Lisp, and was used as the sole planning system at UWMC for many years.
