Abstract

[For years, research in medicine was related closely only to natural sciences, as for example with chemistry in the research for new drugs. In the last decades we have seen a closer link to engineering as well, with mechanical parts being developed to substitute damaged or missing human parts, with microdevices being used as implants, with miniature cameras being utilized to avoid pervasive diagnostic examinations, and so on. With the rapid growth of networking technology and the enhancement of the communications capabilities it offers, it was only a matter of time before interest was also turned to the benefits that may be obtained from the integration of networking capabilities in medical procedures. Thus, the field of Telemedicine was born.]
