Internet2 Cardiovascular SIG Organizational meeting October 15, 2003
Working Agenda: Working Agenda: 11:45 a.m.- Introductions, areas of interest 11:55 a.m.- Remote supervision and interpretation of cardiovascular magnetic resonance studies as an example what could be enabled by Internet 2. 12:10 p.m.- Specific discussion items: National Risk Screening and Identification Network for Athlete Sudden Death Building an understanding of how the heart works, fusion imaging of models, measurements. Remote robotic participation in surgical procedures? Catheterization procedures. Distance collaboration methods for Bioengineering Research Partnerships 12:50 p.m.- What opportunities exist within Internet2? Who should we get to know? Jere Retzer, OHSU- Chair Health Sciences SIG 1:10 p.m.- General Discussion - What organizations do you know? What company contacts do you have? Who should we bring to the table as we work towards establishing an ongoing Working Group? 1:30 p.m.- General Discussion – Summary Planning the next steps; next meeting; prioritization of directions. 1:45 p.m.- Adjourn
Welcome to the Cardiovascular SIG of Internet 2 Unlike most other forms of imaging, imaging of the heart is performed with an understanding of the heart Tools for anatomy, physiology, perfusion by MRI and by ultrasound require special expertise
Best Results Combination of physics, imaging expertise, cardiac physiology, and cardiology Not present in most Radiology departments More cardiac enabled systems in large metro areas than people who know how to use them Example (State of Oregon) - 13 enabled systems, 1 group who knows how to use for Cardiac MRI
Cardiovascular SIG Partners: with Companies and Organizations. GE, Siemens, Philips, Guidant, Medtronics AHA, ACC, ASE, SCMR, AMA NASCI, ASNC, ACR, RSNA RSNA
Opportunities Remote supervision and interpretation/ consultation Information overlay Physiology, electrical conduction, function, perfusion Clinical Research Centers Clinical trials Educational development Health promotion, Informatics-virtual medical record Risk prevention
