The Imaging Science and Information Systems (ISIS) Center of the Department of Radiology at Georgetown University Medical Center (GUMC) has been developing technical requirements for different telemedicine applications. This paper details the process through which those technical requirements are determined and shows how they may differ substantially, depending on the clinical need. This information is presented in light of two telemedicine applications being undertaken at GUMC: a urology application for the management of patients with surgical stone disease and a nephrology application for monitoring of renal dialysis patients.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
