A device and a method are disclosed including a unified format medical information and teleconferencing service (UFMITS) and client devices that communicate with such service, the UFMITS configured to obtain and view different format medical data, such as high resolution medical imaging data, convert the different formats to a unified format, and make such data available to the client devices via a single user interface. In operation, a medical agent, such as a surgeon, connects to the UFMITS, via a network, and requests medical data for a particular patient. The UFMITS sends medical information available about the particular patient to the medical agent in the unified format, enabling the medical agent to view all pertinent medical data using a single software interface. Furthermore, the medical agent may teleconference with other medical agents, via the UFMITS, to discuss such downloaded medical data, which are simultaneously downloaded to the other medical agents.
