I recently heard of a new protocol being developed for image transfer
on the Internet, including compression.  Does anyone know what I'm talking
about?  Can you point me towards some information?  An RFC?

Thanks

Although not an "Internet" protocol, the ACR/NEMA body has completed
draft 3.0 of a Medical Imaging protocol suite.  This protocol includes
image presentation as well as messaging.  One of the transport stacks
endorsed within this industry standard is TCP/IP.
