A system is disclosed for providing pathology diagnostic opinions to physicians at sites remote from where the consulting pathologist is physically located. The system includes a robotically controlled microscope at the remote site equipped with a video camera means for collecting video signals from the microscope. The system also uses a bidirectional communication means to link the microscope with a pathologist workstation. The workstation includes a monitor for viewing images received from the video camera means and control means for generating control signals which are sent over the bidirectional communication means to thereby remotely control the microscope. Preferably, the system also includes means for electronically storing the X, Y, and Z microscope stage coordinates for particular points of the specimen viewed by the pathologist together with means for storing electronically and reproducing photographically the images viewed.

Telemedicine is the practice of medicine at a distance by physicians dispersed over small to large geographic locations. The scheduling and tracking the activities of a plurality of physicians who deliver professional services by telemedicine, namely telephysicians, at discontinuous geographic locations is cumbersome and inefficient. This invention describes a command and control system for managing the schedules of decentralized physicians, tracking their activities, and managing other human resources in a decentralized healthcare system. The command and control system uses computer graphic elements (e.g. icons) as telephysician identifiers. Each icon is unique in appearance and represents an individual service provider. Icons can be electronically inserted into queue diagrams represented at the presentation layer of the command and control system. Icons are archived in an icon library and linked to physician personnel records. These icons are used for many tasks including adding healthcare service providers to case work lists and sorting healthcare providers according to qualifications such as expertise.

A multi-axis imaging system and method wherein a plurality of optical elements are arranged to produce in image space thereof respective images of respective regions in object space thereof, and a plurality of image sensing elements corresponding to respective optical elements are disposed in image space of the image sensing elements to capture images of the respective regions. At least one baffle is positioned along an optical pathway of at least one of the optical elements to block light from outside the field of view of the one of the optical elements from reaching a corresponding image sensing element.
