Date

Telehealth 2008 will take place from April 16 – 18, 2008.

Location

Baltimore is a thriving modern city that is steeped in rich cultural history. The Baltimore Basilica was the first cathedral built in the United States, with stunning architecture that still impresses visitors to this day. Art lovers have no shortage of options, be it a visit to the Peabody Conservatory of Music, Walters Art Museum, or the monument to Edgar Allen Poe. For a relaxing way to enjoy the culture of Baltimore, take an evening stroll down Fells Point to take in unique shops and cobblestone streets that will make you feel that you are in an old English town.








Telehealth ( Telehealth 2008)

The healthcare industry is constantly changing to incorporate new advances in science and to address new needs within society. Recent developments in communication technology have greatly facilitated the exchange of information and expertise. Telehealth is an emerging field in which health services are transmitted over a long distance using technologies such as videoconferencing, the Internet, store-and-forward imaging, streaming media, satellites, and wireless communications. Telehealth promises to impact the ways that clinical healthcare, health-related education, public health, and health administration are approached. Telehealth 2008 is intended to be an international forum for researchers and practitioners interested in the advances in and applications of Telehealth to exchange the latest research, results, and ideas in these areas.
