Cross-departmental access to relevant clinical information for early rehabilitation using a web-based medical multimedia document server

The "Mobile Multimedia Medical Information System" (M 3 IS) project develops a system that enables the exchange of clinical documents, medical images, films and laboratory results both within a hospital and between healthcare institutions. The system accepts documents through DICOM and HL7 interfaces and provides a Web-based client interface that allows for a quick and easy access to the system through a Web browser. In order to comply with data protection requirements, the system implements a powerful access control scheme. The system ensures that most clinically relevant document is available to early rehabilitation in a timely manner, before the final written discharge report becomes available
