HealthLine: integrated information provision to telemedicine networks

The needs of the developing, existing telemedicine networks have encouraged the HealthLine EU project to proceed in creating an Internet Corner, where health professionals will be able to find needed informative material and training on telemedicine issues. Information dissemination among these professionals will be strengthened, results of other EU projects will be disseminated and suitable software links are being developed from existing telemedical software to the HealthLine Internet Corner, allowing on-the-job support of the working health expert. It is thus hoped the HealthLine will promote the success of telemedicine in Europe and facilitate health professionals in their work.
