If it's about the clinic, that doesn't ring true to me. Why would photos of the clinic's customers total to that much data? Do they have hours of 4K video on them or something?

- derefr 9y ago3D pictures, like from MRIs, are big. You take a lot of them per patient. And it would be quite bad to use lossy compression on them. From http://siim.org/?page=archiving_chapter2 http://siim.org/?page=archiving_chapter2 : > One example of the data generated for breast MRI can reveal the large number of sequences and significant amounts of data that are generated for what might be perceived as a “small” study. [...] A significant number of sequences and images result in an average of ~300 MB of data storage per study.
