iPhone/Android app allows doctors to quickly diagnose stroke | KurzweilAI
Doctors can now make a stroke diagnosis using an iPhone/Android app with close to the same accuracy as a diagnosis at a medical computer workstation, researchers from the University of Calgary’s Faculty of Medicine have shown in a new study.
The Resolution MD Mobile app lets physicians view and manipulate remote medical images in high-resolution 3-D on the iPhone or Android phone, allowing for a quick diagnosis for the treatment of stroke, cardiac arrest, or other emergencies. The app allows for real-time access to specialists such as neurologists, regardless of where the physicians and patients are located, and is particularly well-suited for rural medical settings.
