==TeleHealth Database Overview== |
|||
* The small, compact database will function as both a diagnostic aid for untrained or uneducated people, and as a medical reference for doctors in third world countries, working in remote areas without access to formal medical resources. |
|||
* It will possibly be supplemented with Javascript/SVG based animations. |
|||
* It will eventually be composed of the: |
|||
** central reference database |
|||
*** based on the XTerm Medical Dictionary |
|||
** documentation for the TeleHealth Module |
|||
** an expert-system diagnosis aid |
|||
*** Based on PyClips? |
|||
*** The biggest problem here is legal liability, a hefty disclaimer may be needed. |
|||
*** [[User:DyD]] has collected some diagnosis aids used by a local hospital. |
|||
Ian Daniher has been corresponding with Aurelian, creator of [http://medical-dictionary.ro XTerm_Medical_Dictionary], and he has graciously offered to license the database allow OLPC and direct affiliates access and an ability to freely distribute it. |
