Masterarbeit, Bibliographie

Kurzbeschreibung (Abstract)

This Master thesis is based on the principle of "scanning the data and not the patient". This approach will help in bridging the technology gap, thus allowing doctors and patients to be anywhere in the world. The main idea is to establish a kind of "information equivalence" between the patient and the representation of that patient in digital form, so that there is little to no loss in examining the patient through the data representation, compared with what would be lost during a direct in-person examination. Given that it is faster and cheaper to ship information around than to ship people (patients and doctors), an Integrated Development Enviroment is provided which provides all necessary functionalities for visualization, storage, and exchange of medical images. The presentation of medical information is central and important task in telemedicine application. Based on the data presentation the physicians perform a medical diagnosis and apply a treatment plan, accordingly. To provide medical information this thesis work includes modules for Data visualization, Data Storage, Data Capture and Communication. The data visualization allows visualization of both synchronous (real time) and asynchronous (store and forward) data. Also the communication module not only provides the facility of data exchange between online and offline physicians but also allows them to communicate via instant messaging.
