Informatika Kedokteran

Cuplikan tulisan dari web site INAHIA Indonesia

Informatika Kedokteran
By admin
Medical informatics is located at the intersecetion of information technology and the different diciplines of medicine and healthcare. Medical Informatics atau Informatika Kedokteran adalah suatu ilmu yang mempelajari suatu bidang yang terbentuk pada perpotongan ilmu kedokteran/kesehatan dan Teknologi Informatik (Information Technology). Dalam perbincangan penulis dengan pakar Informatika Kedokteran dari Malaysia, dr HM Goh, disebutkan bahwa istilah-istilah seperti ’Informatika Kedokteran’ ’Informatika Kesehatan’ maupun ’e-health’ sebenarnya mempunyai arti yang kurang lebih sama. Secara rinci perkembangan nama / ilmu tersebut bisa dibaca pada file pdf ini

Emotion 6 scans the Mummy of Tut Ankh Amoun!!



Finally it has happened. The world's most famous mummy has met the world's most successful imaging modality! After almost 2 years of preparations during which I saw the project grow and develop through countless hurdles resulting from technical, financial and political adversities, I am certainly proud to see the efforts of all those who were involved come to fruition with the Siemens Somatom Emotion 6 appearing in newspapers and television news all over the world. And that's only the beginning. Next step will be to interpret the results of the scan in order to unveil the secret of Tut's death. Then one by one each mummy in Egypt will be virtually probed to disclose it's own secrets, collectively providing sciences varying from medicine to anthropology with invaluable information about life and 'after-life' in that old and fascinating civilisation.



The collaboration with the University of Hawaii represented by Prof. DeWolfe Miller and with National Geographic was crucial for the success of this project. Within Siemens Medical I would like to thank Dr. Richard Hausmann and Mr. Claus-Wilhelm Behnke for their trust and support. I would also like to thank Michael Brunner, CTL OM and Helge Radtke, KL CT P, for the great management of the technical/logistical and financial issues that were surely not easy to overcome. Thanks to our colleagues from Siemens Ltd in Cairo as well as the colleagues from IBG, our sales representative in Egypt, who have gone far beyond their reponsibilities, dealing with the great bureaucracies of the egyptian customs and other Egypt-specific challenges that can only be handled the egyptian way?! Thanks to Chad DeGraaff for his time and involvement on the applications side ( too bad that unforeseen delays prevented him from performing the actual scan) and to Doris Pischitz for her great communication skills and her enthusiasm and appreciation of the historical importance of this project. Last but not least I would like to thank Dr. Hany Amer, our applications specialist in Egypt who undertook the big task of actually scanning the king!!

This project has been anything but routine and all mentioned here and many others have proven their flexibility and dedication to get it done. Therefore, once again I am proud to have been part of this project and this team. Attached to this message are some images of the mummy being examined, transported and scanned together with the news article from the Associated Press in case you have not seen it.

At CT we do not only think ahead, we also look back to where we come from, for there could lie the clue to the next step forwards.

May God protect you from the curse of the Pharaohs :-)

Medical liability reform USA

Today, US Government plans to limit the amount of money juries can award victims of medical malpractice.. Bush said: "For the sake of affordable and accessible health care in America, we must have a limit on what they call non-economic damages -- I propose a cap of $250,000,".. Government predicted, with no changes in this policy, excessive jury awards will continue to drive up insurance costs, will put good doctors out of business..."these lawyers will sue everybody in sight in order to try to get something,"

Fear of lawsuits has also boosted the cost of health care by leading doctors to practice "defensive medicine," ordering unneeded tests and procedures, Bush said, adding that such practices raise the federal government's health care costs by at least $28 billion a year. link

hummm... just wondering how Indonesian public health policies are.. reminding me to malpractice cases in Indonesia several months ago..about LBH Kedokteran..YLKI Kedokteran..
well, can we really blame the doctor for such a mistakes? (mistake.. not a misprosedural things..or out of authority action )

How to make it balance..? between protect the patient.. and also the doctor !.. we need them, no matter what.. versi depkes.. kalo kita diserang terus maka ilmu kedokteran tidak akan berkembang, dokter2 tidak akan melakukan apa-apa kl kemungkinannya tidak 100% .. Na und ?
