The increasing use of digital computer techniques for the analysis of signals such as the EEG, ECG, plethysmograms and cardiac output curves has led to the use of multichannel analogue frequency modulation telephone data links in the forward direction from the patient to the computer and digital links in the return direction. Single-channel analogue links are also being used for the surveillance of cardiac pacemaker patients and the television Viewphone offers the possibility of a visual contact between two centers. Examples will be given of the use of these various forms of telephone link.
Considerations on the theory of communication point to the importance of "redundant" data in medicine. These usually arise from texts such as catamneses, descriptions of findings etc., and escape digital data pooling and storage on organizational and financial grounds. Here, microfilm is available as an economical storage medium taking little room. Developments in recent years enable integration of automatic analog storage into digital information systems. The use of such a hybrid system in the field of pathology is described.

Representative epidemic transients were generated by computer by a known, plausible mechanism. Accurate retrieval of the individual rate constants and confirmation of their predictive value resulted from a manual test of the mechanism by which the computer outputs were generated. The method is applicable in principle to any regenerative process opposed by exponential decay.

The solutions, n(t), of the differential equation dn/dt = alpha (1 - n) n (4 - 6n + 4n(2) - n(3)) - betan(2) (4 - 6n + 4n(2) - n(3)) in which alpha and beta are instantaneous functions of membrane potential, are shown to fit with good accuracy the time courses of the rise of potassium conductance during depolarizing steps in clamp potential, found experimentally by Hodgkin and Huxley and by Cole and Moore. The equation is derived by analysing the dynamic behaviour of a system consisting of a square array of interacting pores. The possible role of Ca(++) ions in this system is discussed.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the usefulness of a personal computer-based small PACS using analog video images. The analog video recorder, personal computer, and display monitor constitute our system. An analog video recorder is composed of a laser disk recorder for still images and a video cassette recorder for moving images. The acquired video images are managed by a personal computer and database software. The serial communication ports of the personal computer and a video recorder are connected with the reverse cable, and the video recorder is controlled by the personal computer using our program. This system enables filing of multi-modality images including moving images and is used for following up and treatment planning of the patients who received radiotherapy.
