Cardiomedia: a multimedia portable medical record on optical memory card.
The main objective of the CARDIOMEDIA project is to produce and evaluate a coronarian multimedia data record stored on an optical card. The experimentation concerns patients treated by angioplasty at university hospital of Rennes. Often patients treated in the Regional University Hospital are followed up by another Health structure closer to their home. The patient leaves hospital with his card, which is directly available elsewhere for emergency or for consultation. This will optimize the number of examinations and offer a better patient follow-up. The CARDIOMEDIA card is a specialized record which includes various data type: text, image, image sequence of coronarography and ECG signal. For this purpose optical card with its large memory size is very convenient. For medical imaging, we use in this project the DICOM format for image exchange and management, it is combined with a CARDIOMEDIA specific compressing software. For multimedia record, the HTML format and web intranet method are chosen, this allows intuitive interface which can combine various data type and helpers like DICOM image viewer.
