Researchers, stakeholders and health authorities are building one of the biggest test beds for new telemedicine services. The Norwegian Centre for Telemedicine (NST) is the lead partner in this massive project, and research manager at NST, Gunn-Hilde Rotvold, presented her vision: “Troms County will be a laboratory for developing and piloting future ICT solutions for the health services”

 

Using the fast and secure lines of the Norwegian Health Net, services such as electronic laboratory results, teledialysis and dermatological counselling through the Internet can be extended to serve the citizens of the whole region.
