Abstract

A lightweight radiographic package is described for use in highly mobile operations, especially light units. Weight, volume, and power requirements of the current medical field x-ray machine create a situation in which radiographic support is impractical if not possible in the early phase of high mobility medical operations. A method for immediate utilization of the dental field x-ray unit to overcome the limitations of the standard field x-ray machine (GX-111) is described.

[Military telemedicine: a network of networks].

Military telemedicine is a form of collaborative medicine based on the use of communication and information networks. It is more a network of networks than of independent systems. It comprises electronic medical files, epidemiological networks, and surgical and medical databases. Each system must be able to communicate with the others, thereby enabling the development of remote consultation, expertise and assistance. This requires networking between the army, the navy, and the air force communication networks, especially during special operations conducted abroad. We must also develop interoperability with systems in other countries, and with the French civilian health service. This means respecting the general rules governing these networks. The military health network is unique, in that it focuses on battlefield injuries. In addition, the French military health service operates under a single headquarters, governing nurses, paramedics and physicians.

[Record optimization and control of medical property stocks].

To conduct the adequate control of medical property coming to the medical provision institution the software was developed where the special attention was paid to the functions of control-and-operational department. It is conditioned by the fact that together with cost control it is necessary to record the medical property in natural values. The use of the created program in local net system allowed organizing the operative control of material stocks at all stages of its movement.
