MEDICAL DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM AND METHODS

摘要

A system and methods are provided for a medical diagnostic system that incorporates a genetically encoded digital signature to authenticate a patient. In an illustrative implementation, a platform is provided performing one or more functions including but not limited to patient authentication, diagnostics, transmission, and storage of data in a centralized secure database capable of being accessed by healthcare professionals, hi the illustrative implementation, the exemplary medical diagnostic system can comprise a genetic material collector/analyzer. Responsive to inputting genetic material in the collector/analyzer, the collector/analyzer generates a unique genetic-based electronic signature representative of the genetic material. The unique genetic-base electronic signature can then be processed by cooperating parties to authenticate the person providing the genetic sample. In the illustrative operation, such comparison can be accomplished by comparing the generated unique genetic- based electronic signature with a stored genetic-based electronic signature as part of a patient authentication process.
