IEEE Computer Society, "2009 International Conference on eHealth, Telemedicine, and Social Medicine (eTELEMED 2009) February 1-7, 2009 - Cancun, Mexico"

Preface

eTELEMED 2009

The first edition of The International Conference on eHealth, Telemedicine, and Social Medicine

(eTELEMED 2009), held in Cancun, Mexico, February 1st- 6th, 2009, considered advances in

techniques, services, and applications dedicated to a global approach of eHealth.

Development of wireless homecare, of special types of communications with patient data, of

videoconferencing and telepresence, and the progress in image processing and date protection increased

the eHealth applications and services, and extended Internet-based patient coverage areas. Social and

economic aspects as well as the integration of classical systems with the telemedicine systems are still

challenging issues.

eTELEMED 2009 provided a forum where researchers were able to present recent research results and

new research problems and directions related to them. The topics covered aspects from classical

medicine and eHealth integration, systems and communication, devices, and applications.

We take this opportunity to thank all the members of the eTELEMED 2009 Technical Program

Committee as well as the numerous reviewers. The creation of such a broad and high-quality conference

program would not have been possible without their involvement. We also kindly thank all the authors

who dedicated much of their time and efforts to contribute to the eTELEMED 2009. We truly believe that,

thanks to all these efforts, the final conference program consists of top quality contributions.

This event could also not have been a reality without the support of many individuals, organizations,

and sponsors. We are grateful to the members of the eTELEMED 2009 organizing committee for their

help in handling the logistics and for their work to make this professional meeting a success.

We hope that eTELEMED 2009 was a successful international forum for the exchange of ideas and

results between academia and industry and for the promotion of progress in eHealth and Telemedicine

research.

Cancun’s exotic and historical places surely provided a pleasant environment during the conference

and we hope you had a chance to visit the surroundings.
