A Study on the Development of Remote Diagnosis System for Nerve Conduction

  • Published : 1998.06.01

Abstract

A remote measurement system for nerve conduction has been developed to aid patients with spinal cord injury by accident. Existing cooperation between rescuers and doctors can be supported through the introduction of multimedia desktop video conferencing. Such facilities provide several advantages over conventional video conferencing. In particular, patients may feel free because they can see a doctor through the video conferencing facilities. This paper describes the system implementation and evaluation. The author considers the network capability and image data handling, and introduces a method a transmit image data for this system.
