Ajita Ichalkaranje - Böcker

This compendium brings together leading researchers in the fields of Intelligent Systems and healthcare aiming at medical engineers, healthcare managers and computer scientists worldwide. This book is an overview of intelligent paradigms and strategic investments that might payoff for the healthcare enterprise. Specifically, the reader will get ideas for efficiency enhancements for improving effectiveness and quality of care and for increasing patient safety. "Advanced Intelligent Paradigms in Healthcare" straddles technologic topics from DNA processing and automating medical second opinions in the lab, to telemedicine and chat spaces for rural patient outreach, among many others. In terms of management concerns, this book also explores systems approaches such as automated clinical guidelines, institutional workflow management, and best practices and lessons learned with actual applications.

Intelligent paradigms play a tremendous role in the field of Assistive and Preventive Healthcare (APH). This book presents some of the latest research in the field of APH by most prestigious researchers. The contributions include:Ubiquitous computing in APHMultimedia medical informatics in APHVirtual reality in APHDigital Talking booksElectronic Locomotion Aids for the BlindMultimedia Communication System for the BlindInformation Technology for Deaf PeopleGait Training System for Computer-Aided RehabilitationThis book is directed to the healthcare professionals, computer scientists, medical practitioners, professors and students of health science, computer science and related disciplines.
