Tutor:

Lenka Lhotská (gar.), Miroslav Burša, Michal Huptych, Jakub Kužílek, Jiří Spilka

Supervisor:

Department of Cybernetics

Synopsis:

The course explains specific problems of information systems in health care, protection of medical data, processing of medical data, and intelligent monitoring systems. Possibilities of application of telemedicine in different fields of health care are discussed.

The computer labs are focused on practical tasks in medical informatics, as for example database technology, data protection and security, examples of health care information systems, applications of mobile technologies, resources of medical information.
