In my last post I mentioned novel ways of using Personal Health Records will be devised and here is just one example - storing and sharing medical images on the cloud. When I first read this is sounded like they had created a kind of mirror of a PACS server so the patients can access their medical image, and this they called a "Personal Health Record"! That would be novel, but I think I read the article too quickly. What is interesting here, is the idea that (finally) the patient "owns" the image (but not the cloud?) and can have it uploaded to a personal health record. The next great idea in phase III of this project will allow patients to consent to have the images used for clinical trial research - after de-identification. Besides organ donation there really should be some sort of data donation system when we die. Read it < here >
