Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided in order to utilize task value units for imaging interpretation and other tasks, such as in the assignment of imaging interpretation and other tasks to a plurality of users. In the context of a method, the method associates, for each of a plurality of different types of imaging interpretation tasks and for each of a plurality of other tasks, a first task value unit therewith. The method also associates, for at least some of the plurality of different types of imaging interpretation or other tasks, a second task value unit, different than the first task value unit, therewith. Further, the method assigns imaging interpretation and other tasks to a plurality of users based at least partially upon the first and second task value units associated with the respective imaging interpretation tasks and the other tasks.

Abstract: A diaper includes a medical pad including a piece of substrate with a major surface and an electric circuit on the major surface, a sensor connected with the electric circuit for measuring the electrical resistance of the electric circuit, and a wireless data transceiver or a radio frequency identification (RFID) tag electrically connected with the sensor for receiving results of the measuring from the sensor for subsequent transmission. The system carries out real time self-calibration to adaptively monitor the condition of the medical pad even in the face of changing environment and changing material properties.
