MITIS: a WWW-based medical system for managing and processing gynecological-obstetrical-radiological data.
In this paper a World Wide Web (WWW)-based medical system, called MITIS, is designed and developed for the management and processing of obstetrical, gynecological and radiological medical data. The system records all the necessary medical information in terms of patient data, examinations, and operations and provides the user-expert with advanced image processing tools for the manipulation, processing and storage of ultrasound and mammographic images. The system can be installed in a hospital's Local Area Network (LAN) where it can access picture archival and communication systems (PACS) servers (if available), or any other server within the radiology department, for image archiving and retrieval, based on the digital imaging and communication in medicine (DICOM) 3.0 protocol, over TCP/IP and also it is accessible to external physicians via the hospital's Internet connection. MITIS is composed as a set of independent WWW modules (ISAPI server extension dlls) and a Win32 application (COM+ server) for mammography image processing and evaluation.
