We are replacing a weekly ambulatory service by radiologists from a central hospital to a small regional clinic. The new procedure involves daily transmission of digital images, reading the images centrally at a multi-screen workstation, and digital back transmission of dictated reports. We have designed new work procedures, and installed equipment for scanning and for diagnostic workstation. Results so far seem to confirm that teleradiology may represent a viable solution for small clinics lacking qualified radiologists. |
