Calgary Scientific won FDA clearance for the Android version of its ResolutionMD app as a diagnostic imaging tool. The app streams data from a variety of imaging modalities, with off-site servers preparing it for rapid visualization on a smartphone or tablet. Because most processing is done outside the mobile device, no sensitive patient information seems to be transmitted, making it a fundamentally secure process.
The iOS version of ResolutionMD received FDA clearance in September of 2011.
Here’s a demo video of the app:
