Notable iPhone Apps: Modality and MIMVista (part 7 of 7)

This post is part seven of a seven part series covering the iPhone applications and games announced at the WWDC Keynote on Monday, June 9th.

Modality is a reference guide for medical students. The app contains hundreds of illustrations and labels for the complex structure and location of all the internal workings of the human body. This app will help students study and remember the names through features such as Quiz, which generates a random quiz of all the images to help with retention. Another interesting feature is the ability to select a part of the body and search it, either on Google or Wikipedia.

The second app is MIMVista, a simple, yet powerful, application targeted at physicians with huge amounts of medical documents, especially images, that need to be reviewed. Documents such as X-Rays and CT Scans can be uploaded to the phone, enabling the doctor to access the files from anywhere at any time. This app also features an measurement feature for quick reference. It will help doctors be more productive when they lack a workstation.
