    At minimum you are required to:

    • Provide a system that enables multiple physicians to engage in a remote consultation at the same time. They should all be able to look at a patient’s record, make notes, ideally “see” each other and/or the patient.

    • The system should allow them to look back at the patients’ medical records

    • The system should have the ability to quickly view imaging data from X-ray, MRI or CT. For images that are 3D (or able to be rendered in 3D) a user should be able to rotate the images and highlight features on the image that might be good regions of interest to focus on

    • The system should be able to transmit the images and video fast and have optimal compression

    • The system should be scaleable and secure.

    Bonus features

    • Ability to have continuous dictation and transcription – the physician users would speak and it would transcribe the diagnosis

    • Ability to do some intelligent data mining. As the system grows and expands, it would be good to be able to mine the data and tag it. For instance, a particular type of image may be associated with a certain diagnosis. It would be good to have a way for the system to “learn” this (from the physician input or from embedded tags that the physician uses) and then start making some recommendations
