This paper describes the Medical College of Ohio's efforts in developing a client/server telemedicine system. Telemedicine vastly improves the ability of a medical center physician or specialist to interactively consult with a physician at a remote health care facility. The patient receives attention more quickly, he and his family do not need to travel long distances to obtain specialists' services, and the primary care physician can be involved in diagnosis and developing a treatment program [1, 2]. Telemedicine consultations are designed to improve access to health services in underserved urban and rural communities and reduce isolation of rural practitioners [3].
本文描述了俄亥俄医学院在开发客户机/服务器远程医疗系统方面所做的努力。远程医疗极大地提高了医疗中心的内科医生或专科医生与偏远医疗机构的医生进行交互式会诊的能力。患者能更快地得到诊治，他和他的家人无需长途跋涉就能获得专科医生的服务，并且初级保健医生可以参与诊断和制定治疗方案[1,2]。远程医疗会诊旨在改善在服务不足的城乡社区获得医疗服务的机会，并减少农村从业者的孤立状态[3]。
