Technology
The objective of the Center for Electronic Medical Education was to develop software technology for use by physicians and scientists who require images as the primary means of communication and consultation. Initially the software consisted of tools to help medical professionals make diagnoses in real time using a database of images as a reference. The center extended development into three markets: 1) consultation, 2) medical and scientific imaging and 3) telehealth. The goal was to improve the process of delivering healthcare and scientific discoveries for the purposes of consistent communication and collaboration and by linking visual annotations and clinical notes to images without altering the images. By maintaining a consultation record, two physicians could have a consultation about the same patient in geographically distant locations. Both physicians could review clinical information (images and text) at the same time, discuss aspects of the clinical review and maintain an auditable record of the consultation.Center News
