HOW TO START on this EHTO web

EHTO is a meeting place for persons wanting to find and/or display multimedia information on what is going on in the field of HEALTH TELEMATICS. The ¨buttons¨, at the left and at the bottom of the home page, have been set-up in order to enable you finding the information you need with only a few clicks with your mouse. Five of the left buttons appear on a grey background; they refer to the most important information that a user or a decision-maker is likely to look for when using or implementing telematics applications. Another set of "buttons", in blue at the bottom of the home page, enable quicker access to some specific pages which are frequently modified.

The red buttons on the left give you access to the following:
