All images everywhere. The goal of mobile Teleradiology is to become independent of stationary and cable-bounded computers. This work introduces a consistent software architecture which allows to have access to all images everywhere. A user evaluation has been performed to find out what the medical users really need. Several prototypes have been build to explore the users needs and to learn more about software development under the constrains of such a device.
All interaction is done by a pen and via a speech interface.
Thus, the application has to be very different compared to a classical PC application. Tests in real environments are done in radiology departments Germany and Spain. The implementation of the application takes these results into account. It is a perfect device to look at images during patient visits in the hospital. Users at the workstation in the radiology department can submit images to the pager or establish teleconferences where both users can work on synchronized data with synchronized functions.
