Description & Coverage
Description:

Grid computing has emerged as an important new field, distinguished from conventional distributed computing by its focus on large-scale resource sharing and innovative applications as well as an establishment for the creation of e-health networks.

Grid Technologies for E-Health: Applications for Telemedicine Services and Delivery examines innovations to further improve medical management using grid computing. A defining collection of field advancements, this publication discusses the significance of automation and IT resources in healthcare technology previously infeasible due to computing and data-integration constraints.

Coverage:

The many academic areas covered in this publication include, but are not limited to:

  • Computational grids
  • Diagnostic pathology
  • E-learning in telemedicine
  • Grid technology in telepathology
  • Gridifying neuroscientific pipelines
  • Health care grid services
  • Tele-audiology
  • Teleradiology grids
  • Virtual organization technology for e-health
  • Wireless Sensor Networks
Reviews & Statements

The manuscript represents the most current development in application of Grid technologies for telemedicine and eHealth purposes. ... Having in mind the vision for the manuscript, I have asked some of the best and the experienced in Grid technologies and telemedicine and eHealth to help me put together this manuscript, which should be understandable, informative, and comprehensive.
