![]() Digital cameras can be interfaced for access to photos related to medical applications, stored in them. Radiologists can also get email access to, or download, medical images from other medical institutions/professionals. Internet access through broadband/Wi-Fi modems and 2G/3G/4G cellular networks facilitates quick browsing and downloading of a variety of medical images for education and training. For medical imaging and education, laptops of excellent display resolution (1920 × 1280 pixels or better), having built-in speakers and Blu-Ray DVD players, enable connection to the iPOD and Flash Drive as well as to the HD TV units. Laptop computers: Several models of less expensive, compact, light, ultra-thin, portable laptops (also called ‘notebooks’ ‘netbooks’ or ‘ultrabooks’) with Full high definition (HD) LED/plasma/OLED displays (the latest of them with touch-screen facility) and based on McIntosh and Windows 7 operating systems, have been recently introduced to replace the bulky desktop computers. The applications and practical uses of a new MIM software will also be briefly outlined. The advancements in devices comprise: Notebook Laptops, Tablet PC's, Smart phones, Flash drives and Digital cameras. It is hoped this information will be useful for radiologists, medical professionals and physicists (particularly new entrants) based in countries in this region. This letter highlights these advancements with some of which the author had hands-on experience. ![]() Since then, further developments/innovations have taken place in this new field of medical imaging/software and a technology update is in order now. The application of the iPHONE for storing, viewing and manipulation of images using the open-source OSIRIX educational software (meant for diagnostic reads) was only briefly touched upon, with references. This paper described a comprehensive Windows XP desktop home computer system, with useful peripherals and features, connected to the iPOD Classic/Flash Drive. The original paper with the above title (as review and work initiated) by the author was earlier published in JMP.
