Implementation of a Medical Image File Accessing System on Cloud Computing

Large scale cluster based on cloud technologies has been widely used in many areas, including the data center and cloud computing environment. The purpose of presenting the research paper in this field was to solve the challenge in Medical Image exchanging, storing and sharing issues of EMR (Electronic Medical Record). In recent years, many countries invested significant resources on the projects of EMR topics. The benefit of the EMR included: Patient-centered Care, Collaborative Teams, Evidence-based Care, Redesigned Business Processes, Relevant Data Capture and Analysis and Timely Feedback and Education. For instance, the ARRAHIT project in Untied States (2011 - 2015), Health Infoway project in Canada (2001 - 2015) and NHIP project in Taiwan, etc. Aim to the topic of EMR, we presented a system called MIFAS (Medical Image File Accessing System) to solve the exchanging, storing and sharing on Medical Images of crossing the different hospitals issues. Through this system we can enhance efficiency of sharing information between patients and their caregivers. Furthermore, the system can make the bestpossible patient-care decisions.
