Weaving a new net. Web browser technology holds promise to become all-purpose information tool.
Healthcare systems are adapting the "browser" technology that simplified use of the Internet to weave new webs--known as "intranets"--among their provider and facility networks. Browsers eventually will be tapped to deliver information at the point of care, making them an all-purpose tool to reshape clinical practice by providing just the right data at just the right time for a diagnosis or treatment decision.
