Abstract
This paper describes the ongoing work on mobile teleradiology systems in the EC-funded project MTM. The current development is based on the CHILI software architecture, which provides a PACS and teleradiology infrastructure. The authors collected user requirements in a first step. Appropriate hardware has been selected based on these requirements. Dedicated software versions of CHILI have been realized on selected PDA hardware. The target of the MTM project is to use UMTS for wireless communication. A wireless local area network (WLAN, IEEE 802.11b) is currently used, as UMTS is not yet available. We have implemented the full functionality of a regular workstation in the initial version of the software. A first evaluation found out that such a high level of functionality is both difficult to implement in a useful manner, but also not really requested by medical users in an actual situation. Future software versions, therefore, need to focus more on usability issues and core functionality.
