We plan to scale up our currentMITS/DATS system to a new level to create a National Medical Imaging Education Portal. Wewill address the following concerned questions:Web-based Learning (Functions and Formats): Online teaching material can be establishedthrough a website, though the challenge is in the interactivity between instructor/student and theteaching material.

RFIDis not just a substitution for barcodes. RFID ensures that accuracy in inventory control and realtime product information available to make decisions. It makes the supply chain significantlymore accurate and improves the reliability and efficiency of the entire chain. As real-timeinformation is made obtainable, planning and administration processes can be extensivelyimproved as well [1]. Applying RFID technology
