Medical images are a critical component of the healthcare system with great impact on the society’s welfare. Traditionally medical images were stored on film but the advances in modern imaging modalities made it possible to store them electronically. Thus, this research proposes a novel framework for classifying various strategies for storing, retrieving and processing digital medical images. In addition to a detailed discussion, the assessment of the classification framework includes a potential usage scenario of the framework. For researchers, this study identifies important strategies and points out future research directions while, for practitioners, the proposed framework might help medical users develop a lucid understanding of the different approaches and their advantages and disadvantages.

Abstract: We present the implementation of an application using caGrid, which is the service-oriented Grid software infrastructure of the NCI cancer Biomedical Informatics Grid (caBIG TM), to support design and analysis of custom microarray experiments in the study of epigenetic alterations in cancer. The design and execution of these experiments requires synthesis of information from multiple data types and datasets. In our implementation, each data source is implemented as a caGrid Data Service, and analytical resources are wrapped as caGrid Analytical Services. This service-based implementation has several advantages. A backend resource can be modified or upgraded, without needing to change other components in the application. A remote resource can be added easily, since resources are not required to be collected in a centralized infrastructure.

Electronic-Health infrastructure tends to improve the quality of healthcare service delivery through timely access to information electronically with the aid of internet. Mmillions of people in the developed world use internet as a source of healthcare information to improve their lives. Despite the benefits of e-health infrastructure, people living in developing countries lack access to timely information and poor e-healthcare services. Foreign Ngo’s and Multinational institutions (e g. world health organization) have been involved in the funding of e-health projects in some
