The Cutting Edge of Medical Technology Content, Community & Collaboration

Colleagues,

As reported by MSNBC...IBM announced it is working with Brigham and Women's Hospital of Boston on a research project to create an online "radiology theatre" where teams of medical experts can simultaneously discuss and review patients' medical test data using a Web browser.

IBM has created a secure Web site that allows medical experts to "make rounds" on a patient -- no matter where the doctors are located. Data such as CT scans, MRIs, EKGs and other medical tests can be posted on the Web site and analyzed by the team.
