Foil 9 Tango in HealthCare - II

From Overview of Tango applications Tango Tutorial Alliance 98 NCSA Illinois -- April 27 98. by TangoInteractive Team


1 Tango 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.
2 In another example suggested by Saltz (John Hopkins/Maryland) Tango could be used in team health care which involves both spontaneous collaboration and the asynchronous case represented by later expert consultants.
  • Here the backend database support (for logging sessions) could be very useful for linking the different medical sessions for a given case with automatic playback.
