Description

The scope of microcomputer applications in medicine has extended beyond highly technical uses in bioengineering and now reaches into every clinical speciality. The purpose of this book is to bring together the experience of people with diverse clinical interests who have found a role for the microcomputer in their work. Each chapter deals with a different clinical problem, suggests a solution and then discusses how to implement the solution using microcomputer technology. This book is intended to demonstrate the current uses of microcomputers in clinical practice to medical and health care professionals at all levels with a range of applications covering a wide base of clinical disciplines. The topics cover data handling, computer-aided learning, decision support and special techniques.
