    Entorno para la visualización y la práctica con sistemas humanos a través de la Web (WESST - HS)
    (Universidad Icesi, 2006-10-11) Guerra Chávez, Lady J.; Navarro Newball, Andrés Adolfo; Lenis Trujillo, Javier A.; Vélez Beltrán, Jorge Alberto
    This paper presents the development of a Web Environment for Surgical Skills Training on Human Systems (WESST - HS). WESST - HS was conceived in order to satisfy the need to have a generic specification of an organ which could be further used within a surgical simulation. The initial goal was reached and surpassed; at the end, it was found that in medicine is better to treat organs like systems and that WESST - HS could be used independently. The generic specification is included in a web enabled Java application that lets the user interact with system’s and part’s information like shape, size, weight and color. Also, it is possible to display, scale, rotate and translate a three dimensional (3D) representation of the human systems from a file. This article is a description of the elements analyzed and developed in all the stages of the project.

    Virtual surgical tele-simulations in ophthalmology
    (Elsevier, 2003-06-01) Múnera, Luis Eduardo
    n a previous work, a generic software architecture for telemedicine services was proposed. This architecture was intended to be an extensible and a flexible platform where services in tele-simulation, tele-knowledge exchange, and tele-mentoring could be supported. At that time, the architecture was described as consisting of a set of interacting modules, which would provide support for the planned services, however, no module was yet detailed. In this paper, a prototype of a tele-simulation service and the way it can be supported by the architecture is described. The aim of this work is to provide virtual surgical tele-simulation in ophthalmology for ophthalmologists, trainees and doctors in remote locations. Access to surgical simulators in ophthalmology is scarce in Latin America, and providing one which is supported by an Internet-based software architecture would be helpful for practitioners and medical doctors.
