Abstract
The rapid progress has resulted in more intensified and diversified “needs” which are required of the medical care by people. In order to cope with this trend, the problem of medical care has been re-studied from the standpoint of the system engineering, and the various functions of total health care system have been clarified, and the respective functions have been improved.
The idea of Automated Multiphasic Health Testing (AMHT) has been conceived in the circumstances mentioned above. This testing method is considered to be very effective in spite of the great number of examinees to be tested in a very short time. We have completed the Health Check-up System mainly for our employees at the Toshiba Central Hospital, and we are continuing with testing of about 30 examinees daily.
This report describes the concept of our AMHT, explaining the outline of some problems involved in the system operation.
