Abstract

The paper portrays the elaboration and characters of digital hardware and software complex targeted at automatic forming, registration and processing of biomedical object images for non-invasive diagnostics based upon digital microscopy and endoscopia. Digital hardware and software complex is collecting, preliminary analyzing and compressing video-information for transmission along telecommunication channels. Complexes of this kind may serve as a basis for elaboration and introduction of new prospective medical technologies like visual and digital databases for education programs and atlases for discrimination of pathological cells and states. For a starter an aggregation of clinical and laboratory diagnostics systems has been chosen utilizing images from the outputs of digital microvisual and endoscopical systems for elaboration of optical digital diagnostics complexes. Microvisional digital multispectral analysis system ensures forming and visualization of biological tissues’ and medical slides’ microimages. The videoendoscopic system is intended for endoscopic examination of gastrointestinal tract with forming and visualization of endoscopic images, documenting and archiving of data. This system is networked according to TCP/IP protocol. The microvisional and vi deoendoscopic systems grant distant access to images and control functions for remote users from local networks or through WEB-interface.
