Telemedicine and ISDN

Abstract
The advantages of using integrated services digital networks (SDNs) as an infrastructure for telemedicine applications are discussed. The applications, developed in a Norwegian Telecom Research project, are grouped according to their use in the health services: telediagnosis, distance learning, medical information, and administrative health information. The telemedicine applications are reviewed, and a number of ideas for further development of such applications based on ISDN technology are proposed.
