Regional and international integrated telemedicine network for organ transplant (HC 4028 & IN 4028 European Commission DGXIII).

A substantial portion of future medical practice will depend greatly on improved collaboration between the providers throughout the healthcare sector, and effective sharing of data and expertise by different healthcare professionals. In organ transplant it is a rule, donor organs are matched to recipients via national or multinational organ-sharing organizations. Only through close co-operation between transplant surgeons, immunologists, nephrologists, pathologists, radiologists and other physicians could one increase the efficiency of organ transplantation. Information technology (IT) has become an inevitable and inherent part of transplantation medicine. The RETRANSPLANT project interfaces and integrates IT from the European Union Fourth Framework projects to support the development of regional organ transplant information networks in Central Europe.

A double scanning microphotometer for image analysis: hardware, software and biomedical applications.

A new image processing system designed for densitometry and pattern analysis of microscopic specimens is described with special regard to the hardware, the software and the biologic applications. The data acquisition procedure involves the combination between the scanning of the preparation by means of a motorized stage and the scanning of successive fields by a mechanical device. The signal provided by the photomultiplier is converted into digital values which are directed to an on-line computer. The data processing is based on a one-pass computation involving automata theory and therefore it avoids the storage of the image in the computer memory. In so doing, an entire and continuous image of the whole preparation can be processed at the highest magnification of the microscope whatever the size of the analyzed specimen may be. A biologic application of the system is reported and concerns the automatic identification and counting of cells in the various phases of the mitotic cycle.

[SAMBA : a cytophotometer coupled to a computer for the purpose of the automatic study of cell kinetics and the recognition of cell types].

The system SAMBA has been designed for automatic analysis of biological images, at the cellular or subcellular level. The examination is performed at the maximum resolution power of the microscope. It enables to discriminate by means of a pool of morphological and densitometrical parameters, between cells in the different phases of the cell cycle, or between cells belonging to various types in heterogeneous populations. Other recognition programs are at present beeing in progress, in order to promote the use of SAMBA in other fields of fundamental research and clinical application. Owing to the minicomputer now in use, SAMBA is an autonomous system, capable of beeing routinely used in diagnostic centers.
