The present invention relates to a transdermal drug delivery system comprising a dermal drug delivery patch and a heating element compartment securable to the dermal drug delivery patch. A freely transferrable heating element is securable within the heating element compartment. A drug can be administered transdermally using the present invention by placing the dermal drug delivery patch upon a patient's skin at an administration site. A heating element compartment is secured to the dermal drug delivery patch and a freely transferrable heating element is placed within the heating element compartment. The heating element provides controlled heat to the dermal drug patch and the patient's skin aid thereby improves dermal drug administration.

Techniques for providing expert instruction in interpreting outputs of a test instrument to a student who is at a location remote from the expert. The student makes outputs from the test instrument and an interpretation of the outputs available to an expert via a network and receives a commented and graded response in return. The outputs, the interpretation, and the response may be made available in real time or in non-real time. In the non-real-time embodiment, the student makes his interpretation by selecting from menus of possible observations, the expert does the same, and the two interpretations are automatically compared to produce the comments and grade for the response. One application of the invention is teaching echocardiography.
