Foil 47 Tango in HealthCare - II

From TANGO Applications -- C2, Education, HealthCare, Simulation CEWES HPC Collaborative Methods and Tools Meeting -- Februray 27 1997. by Geoffrey C. Fox, Marek Podgorny


TANGOsim has interesting applications to medical education with "scenario" playing through particular medical test cases such as pathology images which residents in training are asked to diagnose in collaboration with experts discussing cases. Such events are typically observed by many largely passive people.
In another example suggested by Saltz (John Hopkins) Tango could be used in team health care which involves both spontaneous collaboration and the asynchronous case represented by later expert consultants.
  • Here the database support will be very useful for linking the different medical sessions for a given case.
