Research

  • My early research was about the management of large archives of Medical
    Images, especially the pictures of the Visible Human Dataset of the US
    National Library of Medicine. Then, my research activity focused on the
    development of modeling of systems and processes of Consumer Health
    Informatics/Personal Health Informatics (e.g. personal and family health
    record systems).
    In addition, my research interest has been focused on the development of
    models and for implementing systems concerning the improvement of medical
    lexicons devoted to or owned by the Consumer /Patient.
    Recently, as the huge amount of released mobile health apps, I have
    investigated strategies for a comprehensive user-oriented identification of
    medical apps.
