Abstract:
"In this work, we present a novel web-based platform for real-time teleconsultation services on medical imaging. The introduced platform encompasses the principles of heterogeneous Workflow Management Systems (WFMSs) and the peer-to-peer paradigm to enhance collaboration among healthcare professionals. The novelty of the presented work is that: (i) it combines the concept of client side computing with the microservices architectural pattern to enhance user experience, while increasing the efficiency of healthcare provision, and that (ii) it could be considered the springboard of an ecosystem of Computer-Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW) services in medicine. The paper discusses the implementation details and the technological aspects behind the whole system, along with some initial evaluation results."
