The Healthcare environment is comprised of data of all sorts that need to be
transferred, analyzed, organized, merged, compared saved and retrieved.
Biomedical Informatics deals with all these aspects. This talk will
introduce the field of Biomedical Informatics and describe its various
aspects through examples such as: hospital information system, radiological
information system, archiving systems, electronic medical records,
probabilistic medical reasoning, time-oriented medical data, decision
support systems, healthcare information standards, security issues and
ethics. Sources of information and funding opportunities will be discussed
as well.
