U.S. /Poland Cooperative Telemedicine Program

Abstract

Hardware requirements for the Polish military telemedicine system are enormous. Modern ruggedized versions of commercial equipment need to be installed. The system should be linked to the transmission network with large archiving capability. Translation into Polish should be relatively straightforward but all the changes and modifications may be difficult and time-consuming if the source code is in the United States. Licensing the source code to one of the Polish companies (Consortia) is a potential solution. The main limitations of military telemedicine are the existing network infrastructure and quality of equipment. Planned network solutions should meet suitable link parameters (bandwidth, delay, 005 etc)
