In this data article, we report real-world data on multichannel connectivity and videotransmission carried on commercial 3G/4G networks in the region of Skåne, southern Sweden. The data reported here complement the research article "Technical feasibility and ambulance nurses' view of a digital telemedicine system in pre-hospital stroke care - A pilot study" (1). The dataset was originally collected as part of a project aimed to test in a clinical setting the quality and usefulness of a linked image and sound transmission in the prehospital assessment of patients with suspected stroke.

A novel technical concept was developed in order to deliver a video/audio system to achieve more efficient patient assessment and diagnostic support.
Aims And Objectives: The aim of the present pilot-study was to evaluate in a clinical setting the quality of a linked image and sound transmission in the prehospital assessment of patients with suspected stroke.

The use of surgical simulator systems for education and preoperative planning is likely to increase in the future. A natural course of development of these systems is to incorporate patient specific anatomical models. This step requires some kind of segmentation process in which the different anatomical parts are extracted.

Design: Experimental study.
Methods: The system consists of a personal computer, a 3-dimensional visual interface, a phacoemulsification handpiece, and a nucleus manipulator and foot pedals for control of the phacoemulsification procedure and microscope adjustments.
