Abstract: The current state of research in the field of computerized electrophysiological gas-trointestinal tract (GIT) diagnostics methods in terms of cooperation of medical specialists and IT-engineers is analyzed in the paper. Hardware, software and methodology of electrogastroenterography (EGEG) are reviewed. The features of the wavelet transform (WT) in the processing of non-stationary signals of EGEG are viewed. The research infrastructure built in recent years in the North-West region of Russia is presented. Prospects are offered: using telemedicine technologies in EGEG and development of open Internet-platform for accumulation and sharing experience between the researchers in this field.

Keywords: medical diagnostics, electrophysiology, electrogastroenterography, digital signal processing, wavelet analysis, information and communications technologies.
