Healthcare Technology and News: AMD Global Telemedicine's General Exam Camera Rated as Number One Patient Exam Camera

AMD Global Telemedicine, Inc. has announced that its General Exam Camera has been recognized as the top performing camera by an independent evaluation team assessing telemedicine exam cameras. AMD’s General Exam Camera was assigned the highest marks for performance in most of the reviewed categories.

AMD’s General Exam camera was evaluated by the assessment team from the Telehealth Technology Assessment Center (TTAC) against another patient exam camera and several other point-and-shoot digital cameras and camcorders as part of their study on various cameras. In several areas such as user friendliness as well as in the overall scores, AMD’s General Exam Camera was successful in outperforming all its competitors.

Having been designed for single-handed use, the AMD General Exam Camera weighing just half a pound, also owns the recognition of being the pioneer among analog cameras to integrate auto focus, freeze frame capture, power zoom and electronic image polarization into a single diagnostic device. The AMD-2500 is also equipped with a powerful auto power zoom feature which would facilitate clinicians with easy camera control, thereby allowing them to simultaneously attend to patient needs during the exam.

According to the TTAC’s study, the AMD’s General Exam Camera has “the additional benefit of a polarizing filter that could eliminate the glare of light on moist or reflective surfaces.” This exclusive feature which cannot be seen in any of the other competitor cameras is a decisive diagnosis aid in wound care and teledermatology settings. The camera, which is an exceptional gadget in documenting sexual abuse or child abuse, also finds applications in emergency medicine/trauma care, primary care, dermatology, wound care and ophthalmology.

The AMD-2500 General Exam Camera continues to secure its stance as the most trustworthy and extensively implemented patient exam camera in the industry owing to the exceptional features it offers. A multitude of equipments and solutions of AMD Global Telemedicine for providing turnkey installation, solution design and telemedicine programs training have been deployed worldwide in over 6,100 telemedicine locations spanning over 80 countries.
