The project involved the transmission of some 600 pediatric X-rays at full resolution over the three month period July-September, 1993. The equipment used was a Kodak film digitiser and image viewing work stations at each hospital, connected to a Telecom Microlink 128 Kbps service by Network Designers ISIS Access Server Kit. Evaluation of the project was conducted by the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare. The results of the trial demonstrated that it was possible to transmit pediatric chest images of diagnostic quality in a reliable and secure manner. As the cost of air-lifting pediatric patients and supporting relatives from country to metropolitan centres can range from $AU7,000 to $AU10,000 per episode, it is considered that the establishment of a teleradiology system can be cost justified, particularly if regard is given to the intangible benefits of providing a 24-hour specialist pediatric diagnostic service to remote hospitals.","PeriodicalId":273407,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Fourth International Conference on Image Management and Communication (IMAC 95)","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-08-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128245439","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Practical considerations or implementation of rural teleradiology links are discussed. Digital image production occurred by either employing a film digitizer or a computed radiography (CR) system. Adequate image resolution was possible for most clinical applications for both methods (minimum array size of 2048/spl times/2048/spl times/10-12 bits for digital transmission). Benefits of CR included reduction in the image production cycle time and improved image handling. The technical sophistication and the cost of the link are directly proportional. Film digitizer technology was two to three times less expensive than CR. CR, on the other hand, offered significant operative expense reductions in the long run. Both CR and digitizer approaches are clinically useful methods for teleradiology. The type of equipment depends on the requirements of the applications needed and financial resources available.","PeriodicalId":273407,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Fourth International Conference on Image Management and Communication (IMAC 95)","volume":"38 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-08-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132700355","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The initial client site at Melbourne, Florida has been in operation since Feb. 1995. Potential future sites include South and Central American and Asian Pacific regions. The teleradiology infrastructure for supporting this project consists of (1) a cost-effective telecommunication network, (2) an image management system, and (3) a complete information system which contains relevant patients' demographic and clinical support data. This infrastructure must be scalable to incorporate unlimited future sites. Of the three, the information system component is the least understood. It must meet four clinical requirements using various state-of-the-art database technologies: (1) it must manage patient data that are dispersed among multiple distributed databases; (2) it must be extremely reliable; (3) it should capture, index and display, for the consulting radiological subspecialist, all relevant information, including imaging required for optimal decision-making; and (4) it must also provide a effective means of reporting findings, impressions and conclusions to the referring physician.","PeriodicalId":273407,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Fourth International Conference on Image Management and Communication (IMAC 95)","volume":"42 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-08-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121895963","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Significant improvements in radiologist productivity, timeliness of imaging reports, and film retake and film loss rates were recorded. Preliminary economic analysis suggests that capital depreciation and maintenance costs are matched by savings in film costs and personnel. The use of the PACS may also increase the efficiency of clinicians and other hospital staff which could result in substantial savings on a hospital-wide basis. Further savings may be achieved by sharing the PACS among multiple medical centers. Clinicians expressed a preference for PACS over film, typically utilized the system 3-5 times per day, taught themselves how to use the PACS rather than take the formal training course, and indicated that their rate of consultations with radiologists had not changed or that it had decreased after the transition to filmless radiology.","PeriodicalId":273407,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Fourth International Conference on Image Management and Communication (IMAC 95)","volume":"105 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-08-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124833032","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This platform will be used for each project with different configurations depending on the clinical needs. The efficacy of a common telemedicine platform has not been evaluated in the literature. The first application, with the Department of Internal Medicine, Division of Clinical Pharmacology, investigates the usefulness of Telemedicine when used for a clinical pharmacology consultation service from an off-site location. The second application, with the Department of Surgery, Division of Urology, tests the utility of a telemedicine platform including radiology images for a surgical stone disease consultation service from an off site location in West Virginia.
