APPLICATION OF UKRAINIAN GRID INFRASTRUCTURE FOR ELECTROENCEPHALOGRAM AND ULTRASONIK DIAGNOSTIC IMAGES ANALYSIS
Abstract
Ultrasonic introscopic imaging (USI) and electroencephalography (EEG) are powerful tools for diagnostics of different pathologies. In the same time USI and EEG equipment is available in almost all clinical and even in many educational institutions. Development of ultrasonic images and EEG data processing algorithms providing physicians with additional specific clinical parameters is a popular current research subject. Successful operation of these algorithms needs fast procession of large information volumes. These algorithms are based on an analysis of large databases with information about the patients. Grid infrastructures can provide distributed data archiving, procession and access facilities for such databases.
