the tele-connection patterns are the major constituents of climate at global and regional scale(s). the karoon basin is of a vital stance in providing natural water supply and hydroelectric; this basin is facing major fluctuations in rainfall regime. identifying the effect of tele-connection on great karoon basin rainfall regime is the subject of this study. to accomplish this objective the sea...

One of the factors for rural physicians to continue their rural practices is continuing professional development (CPD) [1]. In Japan, academic training has been reported to be the most common type of CPD, followed in descending order by participation in academic meetings, academic activities including doctor of philosophy programs [2]. The use of tele-education (remote-support systems using inf...

This paper describes an overview of telemedicine applications in ophthalmology and at the same time to provide background information on new tele-ophthalmological applications and the use of tele-Ophthalmology. Few urban areas for their population, no access/ very less access to tertiary eye care. In order to make eye care services accessible to every one, the concept called “Teleophthalmology”...

Due to the rise of aging population, effective utilization of healthcare resources has become an important issue. With the advance of ICT technology, the application of tele-healthcare service has received more attention than ever. The main purpose of this research is to investigate how to conduct innovative design for tele-healthcare service based on user’s perspectives. First, the healthcare ...

BACKGROUND Infants who do not pass their newborn hearing screen require diagnostic follow-up visits but often face access barriers such as travel distance and shortage of pediatric audiologists. Telemedicine (tele-audiology) is a potential solution to provide diagnostic hearing evaluations for families of infants facing access barriers. We determined the feasibility and impact of a tele-audiolo...

Tele-forensic interviewing (tele-FI;e g , via video-conferencing software) may be an effective way of increasing the accessibility skilled interviewers for children who are questioned as part a criminal or care and protection investigation The current coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has highlighted how critical it is that we have evidence-based procedures to draw upon when traditio...

BACKGROUND Doctors' verbal and non-verbal communication skills have an impact on patients' health outcomes, so it is important for medical students to develop these skills. Traditional, non-verbal communication skills training can involve a tutor manually annotating a student's non-verbal behaviour during patient-doctor consultations, but this is very time-consuming. Tele-conference systems hav...

Data standards play an important role to provide interoperability among different system. As other applications of telemedicine, the tele-radiology needs these standards to work properly. In this article, we conducted a review to introduce some data standards about tele-radiology. By searching PUBMED and Google Scholar database, we find more relevant articles about data standards in tele-radiol...

Tele-echography may be an interesting alternative to conventional care when the medical expert is not close to the patient to be examined. In a system for tele-echography, medical expert proprioception and gesture feelings must be preserved to synchronize the ultrasound images with the motion made by the physician. It is why we develop a master-slave system for robotic tele-echography integrati...

We propose a novel passivity-enforcing tele-driving control framework, which will enable a human operator to stably tele-control a unicycle-type wheeled mobile robot (WMR) over communication network with constant delays while having some useful haptic force-feedback. We consider both the case of kinematic and dynamic WMRs. Our main objective is to enable human users to tele-drive the WMR as the...
