Description

5th International Conference on Telehealth of the International Association of Science and Technology for Development (IASTED)

The healthcare industry is constantly changing to incorporate new advances in science and to address new needs within society. Recent developments in communication technology have greatly facilitated the exchange of information and expertise. Telehealth is an emerging field in which health services are transmitted over a long distance using technologies such as videoconferencing, the Internet, store-and-forward imaging, streaming media, satellites, and wireless communications. Telehealth promises to impact the ways that clinical health care, health-related education, public health, and health administration are approached. Telehealth 2012 is intended to be an international forum for researchers and practitioners interested in the advances in and applications of Telehealth to exchange the latest research, results, and ideas in these areas.

The call for papers topics include, but are not limited to:

Clinical applications of telehealth (consultations, home care, chronic disease management etc)
Other applications of telehealth (health data management, legal, policy and regulatory aspects, privacy, health promotion etc)
Telehealth technologies and interoperability (visualisation, web-based telehealth, robotics, simulation etc)
