Multimodal tele-epileptology: Challenges on the way to interoperable medical data.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To realize multi-modal data exchange for telemedicine in epilepsy.

Methods

TE Ruhr is a multicenter, prospective pilot study. Primary endpoint of the study was the technical implementation of a platform between an epilepsy center and regional neurological departments and international cooperating epilepsy centers, respectively. A multi-professional board was established to develop technical workflows. After completion of the study a survey was conducted among users of the regional arm.

Results

Two workflows were developed, 1) a combination of web-application and use of an established teleradiology network, and 2) a web-application only data exchange. Technical workflow 1 comprised local EEG conversion into to a standard format (.besa) and its shipping as DIC
