摘要:
An apparatus distributes processed image data from a central location to remote terminals, for viewing by medical personnel for the purposes of diagnosis and determining a treatment regimen for a patient. The apparatus receives image data from imaging devices, and is programmed with rules or other parameters with respect to the manner in which that image data is to be processed and sorted. The apparatus applies the parameters to the appropriate received image data, and distributes the processed image data to one or more remotely coupled terminals. Because the image data is automatically pre-processed by the apparatus according to various parameters that are specific to certain medical personnel's preferences (or specific to other factors), the amount of repetitive user-required configuration and repetitive workstation processing is reducednullsimple remote terminals with limited processing capability can receive highly customized image data.
