The iPad has created a great deal of buzz in the tech community. The medical and healthcare community at large are set to benefit from some of its key features, mentioned in our prior posting. One of these key features, the beautiful 1024 by 768 pixel, 9.7 inch screen, is set to change the overall user experience for medical apps that have a focus on imaging, such as anatomy applications. Although this medical app review was done using an iPod Touch, we can only imagine how much more aesthetically pleasing the iPad’s experience will be. As will be discussed later in the post, these applications are a perfect example of how the upcoming iPad could be used in the clinic setting to improve patient education.

I can remember when my kids were younger one of the best car games we would take on a road trip was Brain Quest. It was a fan deck of cards that came in various grade levels and subject areas. The questions were on one side and the answers were on the flip side.
Enter the 21st century version of Brain Quest ala iTunes, made for Apple’s iPod Touch and iPhone. (Grade levels available at the time of review: 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7)
Players begin by entering their name on the Player’s screen and then choose from 6 curriculum-based categories; English, Math, History & Civics, Science, Geography and Grab Bag, with each category hosting nearly 2,000 questions written by grade-level specialists.
