Abstract
The new advances in multimedia technology and telematic environments provide powerful tools that have been applied to several heterogeneous fields with successful results. The area of telediagnostic and remote consultation between physicians will be one that can obtain more benefits. In this work a telediagnostic system applied to teleradiology is presented. The system is built on a Unix software/hardware standard platform, a specific DSP, video card, and an audio and video acquisition and reproduction devices, that incorporate multimedia facilities. The dialogue between physicians is established either interactively on real time, or non interactively through multimedia mail. At low level the transferred information is conveyed on a multimedia structure with TCP/IP protocols over the main public or private telematic networks. The users dispose of a set of multimedia editors to manipulate data, text, voice, images and video over a window environment, that along with the synchronisation of the two remote screens and applications, facilitate the interchange of information between remote sites.
