Abstract :
The telemedicine and distance education system that the paper presents, was designed on the CTE (Collaborative Telemedicine & distance Education) framework, which is an integrated multimedia environment. This is a CBM-based collaborative telemedicine and distance education type, different from the conventional doctor based general practice, and is an integrated multimedia telemedicine and distance education system capable of many application developments using the information super highway. The paper presents the content regarding electronic medical examination chart and data treatment for efficient medical examination and prompt treatment by realizing mutual conversation type remote medical examination system among 3 parties (patient, doctor, pharmacist) on an Internet base. The implementation of this new learning system should be designed with a multimedia application development platform base which is interfaced with computer engineering, computer network technology, CSCW (computer-supported cooperative work) technology, and education engineering
