Secure and protected network connection between medical and external networks.
Internal and world-wide communication, access to medical databases, and information services are essential demands in the science of medicine not only for research, but also for improving patient care. A network connection between the medical network of the Erlangen University Hospital and other international networks was examined as a concept within the scope of a Erlangen Hospital Communication System (EKKS) project and tested with an actual installation.
