MULTIMEDIA MEDICAL NETWORK TECHNIQUE

未来的医疗网络必须处理多媒体信息传输（用于 计算机数据、音频/视频数据和电话数据），并且同时 时间，提供高带宽、高连接性和高容量 在医学图像采集系统、存档系统和用户之间 工作站。物理光学公司（POC）提出了一种光纤 多媒体信息网络（FOMIN），可同时支持 用于医疗信息的多个网络标准和/或协议， 图像传输因此，整体网络带宽和 可以显著地增加连通性。所提出的技术是 高度可扩展，因此用户可以重新配置网络模块， 具体需求。我们的第二阶段工作将继续发展 FOMIN系统组件，包括其详细设计、测试和 规范.两个实际医疗网络应用的测试平台 将被创建和评估。 拟议的商业应用： 由于其整体数据带宽和网络的增加， 连接，拟议的网络模块将适用于各种 医疗网络，如医疗保健提供系统，健康 信息网络和电子病历数据库， 对许多其他科学，环境和商业有用 组织的还预计，由此产生的产品将 满足未来局域网和多媒体网络的需求。

Future medical networks must handle multimedia information transfer (for computer data, audio/video data, and telephony data), and at the same time, provide high bandwidth, high connectivity, and high capacity between medical image acquisition systems, archive systems, and user workstations. Physical Optics Corporation (POC) proposes a Fiber Optical Multimedia Information Network (FOMIN) that can simultaneously support multiple network standards and/or protocols for medical information and image transmission. As a result, overall network bandwidth and connectivity can be increased significantly. The proposed technique is highly scalable, so users can reconfigure the network module for their specific needs. Our Phase II work will continue the development of the FOMIN system components, including its detailed design, testing, and specifications. A testbed for two practical medical network applications will be constructed and evaluated. PROPOSED COMMERCIAL APPLICATIONS: Because of their increased overall data bandwidth and network connectivity, the proposed network modules will be applicable to various medical networks, such as health care delivery systems, health information networks, and electronic patient record databases, and will be useful to many other scientific, environmental, and commercial organizations. It is also expected that the resulting products will address the needs of future local area networks and multimedia networks.
