(Studies in Health Technology and Informatics) 1st Edition
by A. Hasman, G. Gallos, J. Liaskos, M.S. Househ, J. Mantas (Author)
Biomedical informatics is important for the entire domain of healthcare, from clinical informatics and health informatics to the wider field of public health informatics.
This book presents the 80 full papers
selected from the 130 submitted for review and subsequently presented at
the 16th International Conference on Informatics, Management, and
Technology in Healthcare (ICIMTH 2018), held in Athens, Greece, in July
2018. This important conference draws participants from the field of
biomedical and health informatics from all continents to exchange a wide
range of research and application outcomes in informatics from cell to
population, and topics covered here include technologies such as
imaging, sensors and other biomedical equipment, and management and
organizational aspects such as legal and social issues and the setting
of research priorities in health informatics.
Data, informatics
and technology continue to inspire both health professionals and
informaticians to improve healthcare for the benefit of patients, and
this book will be of interest to all those engaged in this endeavor.
