TELE-RADIOLOGY

What is this ?

Teleradiology, in its simplest forms, indicates the distribution and/ or transmission of radiological images of patients to diagnostic centers, doctors, physicians, nurses, technologists etc. so that, they can view the images for further interpretation and consultation.

It is important since the growth rate of radiological imaging procedures is much greater than the growth rate of trained radiologists, leading to an acute shortfall of manpower.

Why I need this :

Our ever expanding client base has reached the remote rural population of India, where Teleradiology is extremely important. Most of our efficient pediatric radiologist, neuroradiologist and musculoskeletal radiologists are based in metropolitan cities, and so they get deprived of the opportunities of serving our rural client base. But teleradiology comes in handy, in this case, as it eradicates the physical gap by sending images to doctors in real time.

Services offered :

Teleradiology uses the standardized networking solutions like telephone lines, internet, wide area network (WAN) and local area network (LAN). Radiographic images are captured at a distance location and then sent to the central hub by high-speed secure networks, where the images are interpreted and feedback sent to clients. Thus, this service is effective, time-saving, efficient and suitable for customized reporting.

For having the test done, no special preparation is necessary. This test is totally non-invasive and painless and does not require any accessories. The concerned physician, however, must be contacted for prior approval

What shall I expect :

Our patients are provided with detailed reports in a very short time (less than 20 minutes in case of emergency reporting). Besides providing best in class technology, we also encourage and facilitate technical support including system installation and maintenance and linking facilities to our clients.
