Information technology in medicine

Abstract

This work examines modern information technologies used in medicine, in particular electronic medical records (EMR), telemedicine platforms, and medical imaging systems, which are widely used for educational and research purposes. A comparative analysis of the capabilities of these technologies, their features, and the limits of their application is conducted. The article provides recommendations on choosing an information system depending on the specific tasks of the user. The use of information technologies in medical education plays an important role, as they allow students and researchers to acquire practical skills in conditions close to real life, without the need to use physical patients in the early stages of training. This is especially important when studying complex medical systems where mistakes can be costly or even dangerous. Information systems provide the opportunity to experiment with different scenarios, develop and test diagnostic algorithms, which significantly speeds up the learning process.
