Abstract
Diagnosis of skin conditions is facilitated by connecting remote operators to an expert consultant over a switched telecommunications network (20). At an operator's station, electrical signals are generated by means of a video camera (15). Images produced by said camera are digitised and compressed prior to transmission over the network. At the expert's station, transmitted data is de-compressed and reconstituted for display and storage. The system allows a consultant dermatologist to receive images of skin conditions from a plurality of general practitioners.
Claims
1. A method of diagnosing a dermatalogical skin condition, in which a remote operator communicates with an expert consultant, comprising steps of
generating an electrical signal at an operator's station of an image to be conveyed to an expert's station;
digitising said electrical signal to produce an original digitised video image;
compressing said video image;
transmitting said video image to the expert's station;
decompressing said transmitted image data to substantial re-constitute said original digitised video data; and
producing a displayable image from said de-compressed image data either in real time or off-line via memory means.
2. A method according to claim 1, wherein said signal is generated by a video still camera.
3. A method according to claim 1, comprising steps of digitising a single frame of a video signal produced by a moving video camera.
