The following projects are currently active: (1) Neurology patient database; (2) Billing systems; (3) EMG signal analysis and spike detection; (5) Stroke patient database; (7) Decision analysis in Neurology and/or EMG; and (8) Generalized systems programming. After completion of this elective, it is believed that the student will have a firm understanding of the role that computers play in medicine. Completion of this elective will allow the student to become familiar and confident about computer systems in medicine.
