The research focused on plastic surgery clinics in Seoul, which recently responded to foreign patients who wanted to get plastic surgery, to recognize the need for the use of mobile healthcare applications to promote medical tourism and to see the expected effects in the future. For the analysis of data, SPSS 21.0 was used. Based on personal characteristics and medical institution characteristics, the future expected effects of using mobile healthcare applications were analyzed to find ways to help vitalize medical tourism. The result showed that the more mobile applications they wants to use in the future and the higher the number of foreign patients of the medical institutions, the more positive the expectation on the use of mobile healthcare application in the future. Also, the higher evaluation on the need for mobile healthcare application, the more helpful in vitalizing the medical tourism in the future, and the higher the positive awareness. I hope that this research will provide an IT foundation for the and expansion of mobile service app on demand analysis and service utilization of medical workers in order to promote medical tourism.

Due to the recent economic development and the improvement of income level in China, the desire for quality medical services is increasing compared to the past. As an alternative to satisfy these needs, various applications using smart phones and the like are being developed. The new corona that occurred in December 2019 began to show great interest in non-face-to-face telemedicine services using smart phones due to the worldwide spread of the coronavirus. Therefore, in this study, a total of 200 people were surveyed on the top three mobile medical applications in China, and the data of 120 people who actually used medical applications were analyzed based on Venkatesh's UTAUT2 theory. A study was conducted on the intent to use and the factors affecting the in-law behavior. First, it has become clear that the interactive characteristics, expectations for effort, price value, interest in privacy, habits, and promotional conditions have a positive impact on the user's use. Second, it was investigated that the user's intention to use influences the behavior of use, and among the intentions of use, it was found that the mobilization characteristic expectation, hedonistic motivation, price value, habits, and promotion conditions affect the use behavior. Third, a study result was derived that the controlling variables such as gender, age, school age, and annual income do not affect the user's intention to use mobile medical applications as a controlling variable. Finally, due to the nature of mobile devices that use the Internet, various security vulnerabilities exist, and this can cause great damage or personal and social impact. Therefore, for the development of mobile medical services in China, it is necessary to re-establish a research model through comprehensive and in-depth considerations to supplement these problems in the future.

의료분야에서 원격판독은 보편화되어 있다. 하지만 이러한 원격판독에 필요한 전송과 관리 시스템은 부족하다. 본 논문에서는 가정용 카메라 모듈을 구성하고 이를 통해 모바일 애플리케이션으로 영상 스트리밍 및 사진 촬영을 하여 촬영된 사진을 치과로 전송하고 원격으로 검진할 수 있는 카메라 모듈 및 애플리케이션의 영상 전송을 위한 방법론을 제시한다. 안드로이드 애플리케이션과 카메라 모듈의 스트리밍 과정에는 여러 가지 문제가 발생한다. 모듈에서의 촬영 영상과 애플리케이션의 스트리밍 영상 간의 딜레이가 존재하는 것과 스트리밍 도중에 영상이 검은 화면으로 나왔다가 다시 돌아오거나 화절 저하 현상이 일어나는 것이다. 이러한 문제점들을 개선하고 최적화 할 수 있도록 한다.

최근 의료 분야는 환자 데이터를 무선으로 전달하는 모바일 헬스케어 시스템을 사용한다. 그러나 현재 환자에게 지원하는 메시지는 특정 환자를 만족시키기는 어렵고, 당뇨환자이나 임신부와 같은 정기적인 환자 관리를 도와주는 헬스케어 시스템이 부족하다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 WPAN의 네트워킹 및 데이터 전송방식과 응용 프레임워크를 적용하여, 특히 임신부를 대상으로 임신확인부터 주기별 건강관리, 태아움직임, 태교 및 건강상식 등을 관리하는 스마트폰을 이용한 헬스케어 스케줄링 애플리케이션을 제안하였다.

These days, computer system has been introduced for work in most areas, including manufacturing, medical service, education, logistics, and other services. To increase work efficiency, mobile system has been more applied. However, on the basis of Android applications, it is hard for laypersons who have no enough knowledge of Android, or computer team members in general firms to develop mobile App. As a result, work efficiency comes to low. Therefore, this study designed and developed the mobile application for anthropometry data input of medical checkup with the use of App Inventor. As shown in the designed and developed mobile application, it is expected to develop a work process mobile App, it is expected to develop a work process mobile App easily and quickly with the use of App Inventor and to increase work efficiency even though there is not much knowledge of mobile application development.

With the development of IT technology recently, medical information systems are being constructed in an integrated u-health environment through cloud services, IoT technologies, and mobile applications. These kinds of medical information systems should provide the medical staff with authorities to access patients' medical information for emergency status treatments or therapeutic purposes. Therefore, in the medical information systems, the reliable and prompt authentication processes are necessary to access the biometric information and the medical information of the patients in charge of the medical staff. However, medical information systems are accessing with simple and static user authentication mechanism using only medical ID / PWD in the present system environment. For this reason, in this paper, we suggest a dynamic situation authentication mechanism that provides transparency of medical information access including various authentication factors considering patient's emergency status condition and dynamic situation authentication system supporting it. Our dynamic Situation Authentication is a combination of user authentication and mobile device authentication, which includes various authentication factor attributes such as emergency status, role of medical staff, their working hours, and their working positions and so forth. We designed and implemented a dynamic situation authentication system including emergency status decision, dynamic situation authentication, and authentication support DB construction. Finally, in order to verify the serviceability of the suggested dynamic situation authentication system, the medical staffs download the mobile application from the medical information server to the medical staff's own mobile device together with the dynamic situation authentication process and the permission to access medical information to the patient and showed access to medical information.

Management of biosignal data in mobile devices causes many problems in real-time transmission of large volume of multimedia data or storage devices. Therefore, this research paper intends to suggest an m-Health system, a clinical data processing system using mobile in order to provide quick medical service. This system deployed health system on IP network, compounded outputs from many bio sensing in remote sites and performed integrated data processing electronically on various bio sensors. The m-health system measures and monitors various biosignals and sends them to data servers of remote hospitals. It is an Android-based mobile application which patients and their family and medical staff can use anywhere anytime. Medical staff access patient data from hospital data servers and provide feedback on medical diagnosis and prescription to patients or users. Video stream for patient monitoring uses a scalable transcoding technique to decides data size appropriate for network traffic and sends video stream, remarkably reducing loads of mobile systems and networks.
