Editorial Review

Product Description
In recent years, guidelines and protocols have gained support as the vehicles for promoting best practices in clinical medicine. They offer the possibilities of reducing unwarranted practice variations, of containing cost while maintaining quality of care, and of defining standards of care for quality assurance purposes. These promises have led to an explosion of guideline publications. Yet studies have shown that dissemination and effective use of guidelines in clinical care remains a major bottleneck. A number of researchers have developed different technologies for delivering computerized guidelines in clinical care. These technologies range from alerts and reminders to knowledge-based systems, information-retrieval systems, and others. The tasks to which guidelines have been applied include classic clinical decision support, workflow management, quality assurance, and resource-requirement estimates. The research has spanned several communities (information retrieval, artificial intelligence, medical informatics, software engineering, clinical medicine), but unfortunately, there has been little cross-fertilization between the communities working in this area. This publication brings together researchers from different communities to examine cutting-edge approaches to guideline modeling and application development and to consider how different communities can leverage each other's strengths.

Product Description
Cybertherapy, the integration of telehealth technologies with the Internet and shared virtual reality, is used for two reasons: either because there is no alternative, or because it is in some sense better than traditional medicine. Nevertheless, the benefits of cybertherapy, due to the variety of its applications and their uneven development, are not self-evident. However, the emergence of cybertherapy is supporting the cost-effectiveness of certain applications, such as assessment, rehabilitation and therapy in clinical psychology and neuroscience. Its key advantage is the possibility of sharing different media and different health care tools in a simple to use and easily accessible Interface. To date, some cybertherapy applications have improved the quality of health care, and later they will probably lead to substantial cost savings. However, cybertherapy is not simply a technology but a complex technological and relational process. In this sense, clinicians and health care providers that want to successfully exploit cybertherapy need to give significant attention to clinical issues, technology, ergonomics, human factors and organizational changes in the structure of the relevant health service. The goal of this volume is to analyze the processes by which cybertherapy applications will contribute to the delivery of state-of-the-art health services. Particular attention is given to the clinical use of virtual reality technology. More in detail, this volume aims at supporting clinicians and scientists, interested in the cybertherapy innovative approach, providing them clinical protocols for the treatment of eating disorders, social phobias, panic disorders and sexual dysfunctions.

5-0 out of 5 stars Outstanding Encyclopedia!
I own the two previous editions yet I have found the 3rd edition worth purchasing. It is much improved, updated and a large number of new entries were added.

Many of the entries were expanded.As examples: the entry for acquired immunodeficiency has increased from three and a half pages to eight pages and includes now recent references published in 2007 and new figures in color. Adeno-associated virus entry was expanded from a half page to almost two pages.Alzheimer disease is discussed on two pages rather than on one. Angiogenesis grew about five fold. Discussions of various aspects of cancer are expanded now to nine and half pages.

Chromosome territories are a new entry and the concepts are illustrated with very beautiful color figures.The chart for confidence intervals is clear. The entry of dog genome is succinct yet informative.Essential features of evolution are discussed on nine pages with very good diagrams.Genetic networks are represented on four pages with very illuminating figures and the basic principles of networks are discussed separately at several other cross-referenced entries. The much-expanded essay on hereditary genius is very enjoyable. The new illustrations of human artificial chromosomes are great.

The new edition retained and expanded on all the classical concepts of basic genetics, genomics and proteomics and updated the entries. The figures are somewhat reduced in size but because of the improvement in reproduction and the use of color they are much better. Because of limitation of space my comments are limited to the 1st volume but the 2nd volume is equally impressive.I whole-heartedly concur with the 30 journal reviews (excerpted at the end) that the best became now better. All in all I find this Encyclopedia far the best among even the much higher priced works. ... Read more

Product Description
Healthcare is a major candidate for improvement in any vision of the kinds of "information highways" and "information societies" that are now being visualised. The (interactive) communication between healthcare providers and their patients or other healthcare providers regardless of geographic distance, namely telemedicine, will become of central importance. The objective of any advanced infrastructure that can be imagined for future healthcare must be to provide a global uniform level of healthcare. To facilitate the possibilities for any international collaboration standardised approaches must be adopted. This book has been mainly written for specialists, practitioners, scientists and managers in the new growing area of health information technologies. It is particularly relevant for those people - a large increasing number - who bridge and integrate knowledges in medicine (basic and clinical) and advanced technologies such as IT. The intended audience is broad and interdisciplinary; biomedical engineers, medical practitioners interested in the advanced IT infrastructures applied to medicine, computer scientists, academic professionals and graduate students, health care managers, standardization bodies, industrial engineers: designers and planners of innovative health care technologies, specialists in telemedicine, internet computing, computer graphics applications. ...

Webster's bibliographic and event-based timelines are comprehensive in scope, covering virtually all topics, geographic locations and people. They do so from a linguistic point of view, and in the case of this book, the focus is on "Informatics," including when used in literature (e.g. all authors that might have Informatics in their name). As such, this book represents the largest compilation of timeline events associated with Informatics when it is used in proper noun form. Webster's timelines cover bibliographic citations, patented inventions, as well as non-conventional and alternative meanings which capture ambiguities in usage. These furthermore cover all parts of speech (possessive, institutional usage, geographic usage) and contexts, including pop culture, the arts, social sciences (linguistics, history, geography, economics, sociology, political science), business, computer science, literature, law, medicine, psychology, mathematics, chemistry, physics, biology and other physical sciences. This "data dump" results in a comprehensive set of entries for a bibliographic and/or event-based timeline on the proper name Informatics, since editorial decisions to include or exclude events is purely a linguistic process.

Editorial Review

Product Description
This book highlights all aspects of laboratory informatics, with a focus on information management and the corresponding hardware and technical processes involved. In addition to a comprehensive introduction on laboratory informatics, the book emphasizes the importance of information and resource management as opposed to simply covering the role of computers that support the information system.

As a Professor of Pathology and the Director of Laboratory Information Services at the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston, Dr. Cowan has witnessed the shift in focus in the laboratory from the information generation to information management, and increasing resource limitations demand a higher level of management precision than can be gained from manual methods. The American Board of Pathology now requires an increasing sophistication in information management from candidates for certification. Thus, this book is intended for pathologists and residents in pathology, clinical laboratory scientists, and laboratory and information managers.

Following the broad-based introduction on laboratory informatics, the book's topics include: computer basics; development and validation of the laboratory information system; computer networks; security and confidentiality on computer systems and networks; total cost of ownership; essential software; interfaces; process modeling; artificial intelligence and expert systems; bar coding in the laboratory; image analysis and computer-assisted quantitation; and telepathology. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars Solid Informatics Text, should be mandated for all residents
Until very recently, informatics is something pathologists typically learned by need or by personal desire.When I was a resident over 20 yrs ago, it was mainframes, and Anatomic Pathology was essentially univolved in informatics.Unfortuneately, Anatomic Pathologists largely are decades behind in informatics, which will become a major detriment in the coming Molecular age.This should be required reading for all residents in pathology and most Anatomic Pathologists.Informatics is here to stay...and if you do not start paying attention you will be left in the dust. I applaude Dr. Cowan and hope others begin to publish other works in this area, particularly related to Anatomic Pathology. ... Read more
