Project: National Digital Mammography Archive

Description: This project was #1 on the 2002 list of InfoWorld's top 100 innovations (http://archive.infoworld.com/features/fe2002iw100.html). The University of Pennsylvania built its Globus Toolkit-based Grid to drive a revolutionary Electronic Medical Record (EMR) repository. The challenge was to develop a patient-centric medical record system that could capture--from any location-- the full range of healthcare files including high-fidelity patient medical images (CT, MRI, mammograms), records, and clinical history. This meant building a networked system for electronic data capture of patient records; managing and storing huge files for fast retrieval, comparison, and diagnostic review; and ensuring the security and privacy standards required for patient records including meeting federal and state regulatory requirements.
