Multidisciplinary learning is one of the most challenging tasks in medical education, on both the graduate and postgraduate levels. And as the volume of information in medical sciences grows rapidly, the demands on on this type of learning are getting bigger.
VoxelX’s mission is to revolutionize the multidisciplinary learning by creating an online DICOM-platform to simulate medical learning. VoxelX’s team is one of the few that is working since 2013 in implementing DICOM-images in medical e-learning specially in radiology field.
Our beta version DICOM-platform has been published online at www.voxelx.com in December 2016 at the RSNA (Radiological society of north America) annual meeting in Chicago, USA. The content of this platform is community-based, so all members can share their pre-validated knowledge and cases either privately or publicly. And accordingly, by powering this platform with the blockchain we will be able to monetize the online content and create incentives to encourage radiologists both as publishers and validators in building and expanding the community of the platform.
With the help of Ethereum's ERC-20 tokens we were able to design rewards algorithm that pays radiologists for every single even tiny submission and update of the contents and images of the platform. VoxelX will be launching a token called GRAY and it will be used mainly to finance building the content of the DICOM-Platform.
The DICOM
DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine) is standard for storing and transmitting medical images enabling the integration of medical imaging devices such as scanners, servers, workstations, printers, network hardware, and picture archiving and communication systems (PACS) from multiple manufacturers. It has been widely adopted by hospitals, and is making inroads into smaller applications like dentists' and doctors' offices Moving DICOM to the Web Dynamically extracting, editing and showing multidisciplinary knowledge on every anatomical structure or pathology displayed in DICOM-images was the main goal of our online web-based DICOM tool.
This direct integration between different online resources and the structure on the image can efficiently reduce time and effort needed for looking up any required information. While scrolling through the DICOM images, this tool allows learners to have full access to resources in our database or other external resources with a single click or a touch on a certain structure.
The Online DICOM-Platform
Our DICOM-platform is built to simulate radiology learning. It is purely interactive and educative. One of its main features is the ability to annotate and link structures and pathologies in the DICOM-images directly with all possible knowledge resources on the web. Implementing the blockchain in this platform will For teaching the user is allowed to build his own files for further use or lecturing, and this is aided by many auto recognition features like recognizing the same anatomical structure in a whole series and link it with the appropriate knowledge resource. Other features like social networking between the users, lecture presentation mode, tablet and mobile device mode, multi-touch capability, online case discussion, quick note system, have been implemented in the Tool.
VoxelX Tools VoxelX platform is stuffed with many tools that enables the medical learner and the radiologist to interact easily with the DICOM-Images. Among these tools are innovative drawing tools that have made it possible to connect and link the structures and diseases on the images with all recognised knowledge resources on the web.
VoxelX Wallet
Every VoxelX registered user will have a wallet created and linked to their account. Unlike traditional cryptocurrency wallets on the market, the VoxelX wallet will be linked with ranking system in the Platform, the more you contribute to the platform the more you get GRAY, the better you are ranked. VoxelX Community The community of VoxelX is our real capital. We can divide this community according to the interest into learners, publishers and validators. All of them can interact with each other publicly or privately.
GRAY Token Sale
The total supply of VoxelX GRAY tokens that will ever be created is 10,000,000,000 (10 billion). The initial token amount is large in order to set a suitable price for microtransactions which occur on the platform. All GRAY tokens will be generated in a seed block and distributed as follows:
Token Sale
45% of GRAY tokens will be sold in the initial GRAY token sale. The token sale will be composed of a private pre-ICO round for strategic and early investors followed by a public offering. Tokens sold during the private and pre-ICO rounds will be discounted but subject to certain lockup restrictions.
