INTRODUCTION Telemedicine includes the use of information and communication technology for education in the health sector, tele-education. Sub-Saharan Africa has an extreme shortage of health professionals and as a result, doctors to teach doctors and students. Tele-education has the potential to provide access to education both formal and continuing medical education. While the uptake of telem...

We investigated sequence features of enhancers separated from their target gene by at least one intermediate gene/exon (named tele-enhancers in this study) and enhancers residing inside their target gene locus. In this study, we used whole genome enhancer maps and gene expression profiles to establish a large panel of tele-enhancers. By contrasting tele-enhancers to proximal enhancers targeting...

OBJECTIVES A tele-intensive care unit (tele-ICU) uses telemedicine in an intensive care unit (ICU) setting, applying technology to provide care to critically ill patients by off-site clinical resources. The purpose of this review was to examine the implementation, adoption, and utilization of tele-ICU systems by hospitals to determine their efficiency and efficacy as identified by cost savings ...

PURPOSE To design a "low-cost" tele-imaging method allowing real-time tele-ultrasound expertise, delayed tele-ultrasound diagnosis, and tele-radiology between remote peripherals hospitals and clinics (patient centers) and university hospital centers (expert center). MATERIALS AND METHODS A system of communication via internet (IP camera and remote access software) enabling transfer of ultraso...

Recently, tele-training has become a hot topic of research within the computer science research community. The computer industry is also interested in tele-training solutions. Distance education is seen by the computer industry as a new growing market and recently we witnessed a proliferation of the first generation of tele-training software packages. The extend to which tele-training systems m...

Changes in the telecommunications industry are now allowing support for cooperative provisioning of multimedia tele-services. This can provide a useful model for educational organizations to handle the inherent complexity of providing tele-educational courses while leaving them time to concentrate on pedagogical issues. The Prospect project is examining the provision and management of tele-educ...

The number of dismantling sites for buildings has been rapidly increased and these processes are very dangerous. So many research papers have been published addressing the development of a remote controller for the dismantling equipments. In this paper, a novel concept of applying tele-operated device is proposed for the remote control of excavator-like dismantling equipment. As a tele-operated...

AIM OF THE STUDY To evaluate the diagnostic capacity of tele-cervicography for the detection of cervical neoplasia as an adjunctive test with Papanicolaou (Pap) smears. MATERIAL AND METHODS Pap smear and tele-cervicography were performed on each subject. Histologic results were obtained for all patients. RESULTS Of the 863 females who had a tele-cervigram, 252 (29.2%) had a positive result....

This paper describes a concept for a behaviour-based integration of tele-operator commands into the control system of a mobile robot. The control system presented features different control modes which allow for pure tele-operation, assisted tele-operation, and fully autonomous navigation. It is explained how the tele-operator can influence the robot’s motion at any time and how he can simply a...
