Abstract
- In the clinical practice of neurosurgery, there are frequent needs which require urgent communication between housestaff and attending physician due to the emergency situation. But, the traditional methods such as telephone communication were not sufficient and sometimes, result in misjudgement of patient's status. So, our research team develop the computer software which can be used for emergency surgical and medical decision making. This software can transmitted the high quality images of CT, MRI and other X-ray with the conventional telephone line and personal computer system.
