WHAT IS TELERADIOLOGY?

Teleradiology is the transmission of patient’s radiological images, such as Digital X-Rays CT and MRI Scans from one location to another for the purposes of interpretation and/or consultation via internet.

Teleradiology is a growth technology given that imaging procedures are growing approximately 15% annually against an increase of only 2% in the Radiologist population.

Teleradiology improves patient care by allowing Radiologists to provide services without actually having to be at the location of the patient. This is particularly important when a super-specialist such as a MRI Radiologist, Neuroradiologist, Pediatric Radiologist, or Musculoskeletal Radiologist is needed. since these professionals are generally located in large metropolitan areas only and working during day time hours. Teleradiology allows for trained specialists to be available 24/7.

Medicare Investigations (P) Ltd, Vadodara, India is such kind of radiology hub where highly experienced and senior teleradiologists, with more than 20 yrs experience are available 24/7 days for prompt, efficient and world class reporting of images sent from all around the world.

Teleradiology utilizes standard network technologies such as the Broadband Internet, Telephone, WAN, or over a LAN. Specialized software is used to transmit the images and enable the Radiologist to effectively analyze what can be hundreds of images for a given study. Technologies such as advanced graphics processing, voice recognition, and image compression are often used in Teleradiology. Through Teleradiology, images can be sent to another part of the hospital, or to other locations around the world.
