RATIONALE: sci.med.otolaryngology
At present there is no newsgroup dedicated to the discussion of otolaryngo-
logical medicine or head and neck surgery. For ENTs and others interested
in otorhinolaryngology, head, and neck surgery few resources are currently
available on the Internet. Most of the information concerning this topic
in sci.med is lost in the majority of other news. The group
sci.med.otolaryngology will help to fill this void by providing a forum for
exchanging ideas and information pertaining to ENT medicine.
CHARTER: sci.med.otolaryngology
The scope of the proposed group sci.med.otolaryngology should cover
- all pathology affecting ear, nose, throat, head, and neck
- diagnostic and surgical techniques
- diagnostic and therapy off dizziness, hearing loss,
and defects of speech, language, and voice
- patient education
- practice management
- ENT medical education and certification
- instruments and equipment
- case-discussion with related medical disciplines
(e.g. dermatology, neurology, odontology, ophthalmology, psychiatry)
as this is not possible in sci.med or other newsgroups
END CHARTER.
