The importance of scanner technology for telemedicine

Telemedicine - service medical reform, benefiting people's livelihood

Telemedicine refers to computer software technology, network communication technology combined with medical technology, designed to improve the diagnosis and medical standards, reduce health care costs, to meet a new health care medical needs of the masses. At present, telemedicine technology has evolved from the initial TV monitoring and telephone remote diagnosis to the use of high-speed networks for integrated transmission of digital, image and voice, and real-time communication of voice and high-definition images, providing a modern medical application. Broad development space.

People all over the world, especially those living in rural or remote areas, want timely, high-quality medical services. However, the majority of the people living in rural and remote areas often do not have access to normal medical services. This is mainly because well-known medical experts and high-quality, sophisticated medical equipment are mainly concentrated in large and densely populated cities. However, the medical and health resources in the vast rural and remote poverty-stricken areas are extremely poor, and the overall medical and health level is generally lagging behind. Critical and difficult patients are often sent to higher-level hospitals for expert consultation. Through the telemedicine system, a new connection between medical experts and patients in remote areas is established, so that patients in remote areas and without good medical conditions can also obtain timely good diagnosis and treatment services, and easily solve the problem of grassroots people. Difficult, expensive medical treatment problems.

Telemedicine is an important part of hospital information construction. In China, the distribution of medical and health resources is seriously uneven. Small hospitals need to improve the ability of diagnosis and treatment through telemedicine; large hospitals need to use telemedicine to better play the level of hospitals and experts to serve the majority of patients; It is hoped that the telemedicine will speed up the construction of hospital information, serve the reform of the national medical and health system, and use telemedicine to change the uneven distribution of medical resources in various regions and the current situation of the elderly.

The importance of scanners for telemedicine

Telemedicine system

When building a telemedicine system, hospitals need to first configure a complete network communication system; secondly, configure corresponding hardware facilities, including medical imaging digital devices. With the continuous development of medical devices, the medical image processing technology, which is known as PACS technology, has developed the DICOM international image standard in parallel with the development of the network. With the creation of the DICOM standard, it is convenient to communicate with each other between medical devices, medical devices and computers to obtain data of medical devices.

Telemedicine demand for scanners

We know that doctors need to collect various symptoms, signs and related information from patients during the medical process to make a diagnosis and develop a treatment plan. However, in telemedicine, doctors and patients are not likely to realize the personal examination of patients by the experts due to space obstruction. By installing certain software and hardware (such as cameras, microphones, speakers and related software) on both sides of the doctor and patient, and transmitting signals via the network, it is not difficult to realize the "intercommunication" and "inter-view" between the doctors and the patients. Thus, a basic The remote consultation process was established. However, in reality, these are not enough. In the course of the diagnosis, there are a lot of information about the instrument inspection and some operations that must be performed by experienced experts. As a medical imaging digital device, the emergence of medical film scanners has solved the problem that remote experts cannot obtain the image information of patients in remote areas.

The significance of film scanners for telemedicine

In the telemedicine system, the medical film scanner digitally scans the traditional film images produced by X-ray, CT, nuclear magnetic resonance, etc. in remote hospitals to generate DICOM international standard format images, which can be easily transmitted through the Internet for remote consultation.

(1) Easily obtain patient images

The medical film scanner scans the patient's film and automatically generates DICOM international standard format images. With computer network communication technology,

The scanned digital image is transmitted from the patient to the remote expert, and the remote expert can easily obtain the patient's image information. The remote expert makes a diagnosis plan by reading the image information transmitted from the patient and combining with the patient.

(2) Improve the level of telemedicine diagnosis

In telemedicine, by installing a certain software and hardware such as a camera and a microphone between the doctor and the patient, the network communication system realizes mutual hearing and mutual viewing between the doctor and the patient. In order to improve the accuracy of the diagnosis, in the actual remote consultation process, the grassroots hospital needs to provide more patient information (such as image information), and the remote expert can make an accurate diagnosis plan. The medical film scanner is used to scan the film of the patient and transmit it to the expert remotely. The expert can conveniently access and process the transmitted image information through the supporting software of the scanner, such as measuring and marking on the CT image. Etc., easy access to first-hand information of patients, improve medical diagnosis.

(3) Alleviate the pressure of treatment in large hospitals

The medical technology equipment of small and medium-sized hospitals in China is backward, so critical and difficult patients hope to see a large hospital. Even in large cities, patients hope to go to tertiary hospitals for specialist treatment rather than primary hospitals. These have caused the situation of patients to flow into municipal hospitals, which has increased the burden on municipal hospitals, resulting in tight beds, while the beds at the grassroots level are relatively idle. Township hospitals only need to add a scanner to the original X-ray machine to realize remote expert consultation, to meet the psychological needs of patients to see experts, and to ease the pressure of higher-level hospitals.

In order to improve the quality of catheter care, the fixation of various types of catheters plays an important role in modern nursing. The SEALCUFF Disposable Drainage Tube Holder has the advantages of non-invasive fixation, relieved patient suffering, firm fixation, less allergic reaction, and reduced nurse workload.
