Has the landscape changed much since then? Is the work finished? http://www.linuxmednews.com/linuxmednews/1112317813/index_html I am sure this depends upon where you stand now compared to 5 years ago. Since my perspective is still that of a US academic medical center, I would have to say the technological landscape is in more turmoil then ever before and the status of linux in medicine is just as uncertain now as it was 5 years ago. Certainly from the research perspective both linux, in the form of affordable super computer clusters and Mac OS X in the form of desktop alternative and as a server hub for a unit or lab, the momentum is clearly established. But in classrooms, homes and offices, little impact is felt. signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part
LMN: Windows VistA Client Running on Linux
As many as 98,000 people die each year as a result of preventable medical errors which Free and Open Source electronic medical records software could reduce. A contender in this area is the Veterans Administration (VA) public domain VistA codebase and large community. In a major advance for FOSS in medicine, Joseph Dal Molin of WorldVistA reports success in getting the VA Computerized Patient Record System (CPRS) VistA client running on Linux using WINE and Crossover office. The CPRS client formerly ran only on the Microsoft Windows operating system and is widely deployed on thousands of workstations within the United States VA system. More details of this development and a screenshot can be found here: http://www.linuxmednews.com/linuxmednews/1112336432/index_html
