Abstract

BACKGROUND

The usage of the Internet in live-broadcasting ophthalmological lectures might be helpful in the education of eye doctors. The purpose is to report first experiences of a live-broadcasted congress.

METHOD

The congress "Autonomic Innervation and Microcirculation of the Eye--Implications in Glaucoma Pathophysiology", held in the Department of Ophthalmology of the University Erlangen-Nürnberg at the 27th January 1999 was live-broadcasted via Internet by the electronic journal "Online Journal of Ophthalmology" (www.onjoph.com). The congress was organized by the "Sonderforschungsbereich 539, Glaukome, einschliesslich PEX" of the University Erlangen-Nürnberg. The original sound of the lectures was digitized by 8000 Hz and coded with 14 bit. Using the free software "Real-Audio-Player" the user could hear the speech of the lecturer in radio quality. Two live-pictures from two digital video cameras and the digitized slides were available at the screen within two frames. Two weeks before all 6576 ophthalmologists in Germany were informed about the event by conventional mail.

RESULTS

The live-broadcasted congress was followed by 899 online-participants (899/6576 = 13.6%). 238 of 899 participants were able to hear the original sound. 154 of 6576 (2.3%) ophthalmologists answered by FAX. 18% of the answering eye doctors have followed the congress by Internet. Mainly all (98%) of them were very interested in live-broadcasted lectures or congresses and wanted to be informed about the next lecture or congress broadcasted by means of Internet. The lectures-on demand of this congress with sound and pictures are now available under the address http:/(/)www.onjoph. com/global/livewrk1/Default.htm.

CONCLUSION

The major part of eye doctors in Germany seems very interested in live-broadcasted lectures for online-education. In the first national-wide trial 899 of 6576 informed eye doctors followed the congress.

摘要

背景

通过互联网直播眼科讲座可能有助于眼科医生的教育。目的是报告一次直播大会的首次经验。

方法

1999年1月27日在埃尔朗根 - 纽伦堡大学眼科举行的“眼的自主神经支配与微循环——在青光眼病理生理学中的意义”大会，由电子期刊《眼科在线杂志》（www.onjoph.com）通过互联网进行直播。该大会由埃尔朗根 - 纽伦堡大学的“539特别研究领域，青光眼，包括剥脱性青光眼”组织。讲座的原始声音以8000赫兹进行数字化处理并采用14位编码。使用免费软件“Real - Audio - Player”，用户可以听到具有广播质量的讲师讲话。来自两台数字摄像机的两张实时图片以及数字化幻灯片在屏幕上的两帧内显示。在大会前两周，通过传统邮件向德国的6576名眼科医生通报了该活动。

结果

899名在线参与者观看了直播大会（899/6576 = 13.6%）。899名参与者中有238人能够听到原始声音。6576名眼科医生中有154人（2.3%）通过传真回复。回复的眼科医生中有18%是通过互联网观看大会的。几乎所有（98%）回复者对直播讲座或大会非常感兴趣，并希望了解下一次通过互联网直播的讲座或大会信息。本次大会带有声音和图像的按需点播讲座现在可在网址http:/(/)www.onjoph.com/global/livewrk1/Default.htm获取。
