Abstract |
We have established a medical network in Asia-Pacific area with high-quality moving image with broad band internet lines since February, 2003. Broadcasting real-time demonstration of medical procedure... and teleconference with medical-quality videos with Digital Video Transport System (DVTS) and High Definition TeleVision (HDTV) with mpeg2, both need 25-30 Mbps, were useful to learn medical techniques (surgery, endoscope, etc.) and to exchange professional opinions beyond the geographical border. In this project, we have conducted 23 events in categories of teleconference (9 times), live transmission of medical procedure (7 times), and remote attendance to scientific medical meetings (7 times) between 5 countries (Korea, China, U.S.A, Australia and Japan) until 11th November 2004. There has been no major communication/ethical problem. With these experiences and current achievements, we hope to extend this advanced network system to whole Asia-Pacific countries to share medical skills and knowledge.show more
