It is! Our main server is the telepathology network at the University of Basel (http://telepath.patho.unibas.ch). This server is operational since 2001 and presently is hosting some 800 pathologists (and other medical specialists) and approx 3500 consultations have been performed. A few examples: Telepathology: Solomon Islands (330 consultations), Cambodia (350), Bangladesh (130), Laos (+-50), bone tumours group in Europe (80), hepathopathology ..... other applications Multi-center studies (500), tumour board meetings (200), neonatology in Ukraine (45) ..... Intraoperative frozen sections with remote controlled microscope: 1 application in Switzerland (+- 50 consultations/year) In addition, there are some few other servers. > > At FOSSFA, we are actually thinking of including some additional > > services into care2x: > > - telemed referrals > > - virtual libraries (access to pubmed, etc) > > The idea would be that a number of hospitals equiped with care2x > > integrate into a network (maybe even including national DoHs) > > Something like a free Oracle Collaboration Suite?

There is none of the total system, but of single parts: telepathology/medicine: http://telepath.patho.unibas.ch http://telemed.utr.ac.za medline access by email: http://pm2mail.krot.org (description) (this one could easily be extended to an intranet solution, embedded into care2s - maybe not interesting in US/Europe, where online medline access is available, but in developing countries, it could be helpful. Maybe, other libraries could be included. Goes a bit into the direction of the TeK project at MIT) best regards Kurt -- ---------------------------------------------------------------- Kurt Brauchli-Haase Telemedicine Unit, University of Transkei Umtata, South Africa tel: +27 47 502 2914 ---------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net is sponsored by: Speed Start Your Linux Apps Now.
