Inspiration

In Ethiopia some patients die because of doctor’s laziness or because the doctor is unqualified or the specialty/required skill set is not there, so E-mailing an MRI or X-ray of the inflamed area to a specialist for a second opinion just might save your life.

What it does

Telemedicine (also referred to as "telehealth" or "e-health") allows health care professionals to evaluate, diagnose and treat patients in remote locations using telecommunications technology.

How we built it

We used Visual Studio to create the back-end and simultaneously developed the frontend using Angular.js to improve the speed of developing and integrated the both parts later.

Challenges we ran into

Starting new projects always leads to configuation, installation and deployment troubles. Which results in a lot of time trouble shooting. This time could have been spent developing more features.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

The fact that two different technologies (angular and .net core) on different OS'es came together into one solution.

What we learned

Working as a multi-disciplinary team, new frameworks.

What's next for eMed

Adding more features and iterate on the design and functionality. It has potential, but cannot be delivered in a few days.
