New apps expand iPhone’s value for medical professionals

(DIAGNOSTIC IMAGING) -- The number of applications for the iPhone has skyrocketed and medicine-related applications are coming online at a rapid pace. Four new applications have been developed specifically for medical professionals, some of which will aid radiologists as well as referring physicians. iMobileHealthCare has developed iAorticValve, a reference guide to all heart valve products. The information is organized in a searchable database. The application also provides access to PubMeb, the National Library of Medicine’s online journal database. The University of Utah has created three applications specifically for the medical field: - ImageVis3D Mobile allows users to display, rotate, and manipulate 3D images of medical CT and MRI scans - AnatomyLab lets students to conduct a “virtual dissection” by providing real human cadaver images during 40 separate stages of dissection - My Body, a scaled-down version of AnatomyLab provides less detailed anatomy images for the general public.
