A Dutch development involves the use of smartphones and a heart beat sensor to register the heartbeat of elderly people. Partner or children of the subject will automatically get a notification when there is a problem with the subject and can see on their phone what the problem is, where the subject is located and what the shortest route to the subject is from the current position. A great development that could be a good solution for cardiac patients. The youtube movie below gives a short introduction in Dutch, the website is also only in Dutch.
This blog provides information on conferences and novelties in the area of Medical Imaging Informatics (MII). MII has a broad scope ranging from the Radiology Information System and Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) to Advanced Visualization and Computer Aided Diagnosis (CAD). To find new opportunities in healthcare we need to look at informatics solutions in other areas to apply them into the medical field to achieve higher level healthcare at lower costs.
