iPad supports image transfer to ICU

In this paper, a Massachusetts General Hospital team will share how the iPad can bridge the gap between intensivists and radiologists.

The researchers found that an iPad-based application enables physicians to immediately view images and make diagnoses, said presenter Dr. Supriya Gupta.

"This emphasizes the use of the device in ICU settings where complications need to be addressed urgently or evidence-based decisions are imperative," she said.
