The Health Informatics track comprises papers about developing
and assessing methods and systems for the acquisition, processing,
and interpretation of patient data, especially in so far as computers
and telecommunication technologies are the vehicles used to realize
these goals in regional areas. Health informatics deals with the
entire informatics domain as well as the domains of medicine, nursing,
dentistry, allied health and health care from consumer, policy and
public health perspectives, from computer-based patient records
to image processing and from primary care practices to hospitals
and regions of health care. Papers on any of these or other topics
in Health Informatics in relation to regional development are welcome.
