Requirements for urology and renal dialysis PC-based telemedicine applications: comparative analysis.
The Imaging Science and Information Systems (ISIS) Center of the Department of Radiology at Georgetown University Medical Center (GUMC) has been developing technical requirements for different telemedicine applications. This paper details the process through which those technical requirements are determined and shows how they may differ substantially, depending on the clinical need. This information is presented in light of two telemedicine applications being undertaken at GUMC: a urology application for the management of patients with surgical stone disease and a nephrology application for monitoring of renal dialysis patients.
