A New Digital Platform for Collecting Measurement Data from the Novel Imaging Sensors in Urology.

The use of UT and EIT technologies gives the opportunity to develop new, effective, minimally invasive diagnostic methods for urology. The introduction of new diagnostic methods into medicine requires the development of new tools for collecting, processing and analysing the data obtained from them. Such system might be seen as a part of the electronic health record EHR system. The digital medical data management platform must provide the infrastructure that will make medical activity possible and effective in the presented scope. The solution presented in this article was implemented using the newest computer technologies to obtain advantages such as mobility, versatility, flexibility and scalability. The architecture of the developed platform, technological stack proposals, database structure and user interface are presented. In the course of this study, an analysis of known and available standards such as Hl7, RIM, DICOM, and tools for collecting medical data was performed, and the results obtained using them are also presented. The developed digital platform also falls into an innovative path of creating a network of sensors communicating with each other in the digital space, resulting in the implementation of the IoT (Internet of Things) vision. The issues of building software based on the architecture of microservices were discussed emphasizing the role of message brokers. The selected message brokers were also analysed in terms of available features and message transmission time.
