Google will begin storing the medical records of a few thousand people as it tests a long-awaited health service that is likely to raise more concerns about the volume of sensitive information entrusted to the internet search leader. The pilot project will involve 1 500 to 10 000 patients at the Cleveland Clinic in the United States.
