In this paper we present a synopsis of the results of BIOLAB. The project aims at the elaboration of an integrated biomedical laboratory. This integration is considered around the softaware and hardware specification of a powerfull workstation. The project has studied the hardware and software specificatons of a biomedical laboratory workstation. Through this workastation various heterogeneous madical information systems can be accessed. In the project the harware specification of the workstation has been completed as well as the specification of a language for accessing the various heterogeneous medical information componenets. Such components studied in the project are a medical image processing module a neural network classifier and a neural network diagnostic system.
