Syntactic-semantic Tagging of Medical Texts by W. Ceusters,P. Spyns,G. De Moor Pdf

This book summarises the achievements of the Multi-TALE project, that aims at developing a syntactic-semantic tagger-lemmatiser that assist lexicolo-gist in a multilingual environment to automatically classify specialised terms in a standardisation perspective. Its intended audience consists of (mainly) two distinct groups: on the one hand the computational linguists, who are sometimes desperately seeking an appropriate application involving real life data for their implemented prototypes, and on the other hand medical E.D.P. managers (doctors or computer scientists), who are sometimes looking equally desperately for methods that would facilitate their information retrieval and knowledge processing tasks. Therefore, this book contains a concise introduction to the relevant linguistic and medical topics required for an overall comprehension of its other parts. Inevita-bly, some notions are already well known by one group of readers but completely new to the other group. We have aimed at striking a good balance so that no reader becomes rapidly bored or discouraged.

User Acceptance of Health Telematics Applications by I. Iakovidis,S. Maglavera,Antonios Trakatellis Pdf

This book contains examples of "convincing cases" that were selected from all over Europe and presented by experienced users and healthcare decision-makers. These examples are based on successful cases of implementation of health telematics applications and services such as electronic healthcare records and hospital information systems, specialised departmental systems, emergency telemedicine, and regional healthcare networks. Examples of experiences relating to medical informatics education are also included since the education is a crucial factor in the area of user acceptance. Cases of successful promotion of good quality applications and other issues related to users and technology are included in the last section. The readers will find qualitative and quantitative descriptions of many useful experiences of implementation and use of health telematics systems and services. The text of many of the papers is very rich in quantitative analysis and statistics providing good source of reference.

Medicine Meets Virtual Reality by James D. Westwood Pdf

MMVR offers solutions for problems in clinical care through the phenomenally expanding potential of computer technology. Computer-based tools promise to improve healthcare while reducing cost - a vital requirement in today's economic environment. This seventh annual MMVR focuses on the healthcare needs of women. Women every where demand more attention to breast cancer, cervical cancer, ageing-related conditions. Electronic tools provide the means to revolutionise diagnosis, treatment and education. The book demonstrates what new tools can improve the care of their female patients. As minimally invasive procedures are mainstreamed, advanced imaging and robotics tools become indispensable. The internet and other networks establish new venues for communication and research. Medical education, as well as clinical care, is enhanced by systems allowing instruction and professional interaction in ways never before possible and with efficiency never before achieved. Telemedicine networks now permit providers to meet patients needs where previously impossible. MMVR strengthens the link between healthcare providers and their patients. The volume contains selected papers authored by presenters at the conference. Areas of focus include Computer-Assisted Surgery, Data Fusion & Informatics, Diagnostic Tools, Education & Training, Mental Health, Modelling, Net Architecture, Robotics, Simulation, Telemedicine, Telepresence and Visualisation.
