Teleradiology refers to the transmission of radiological images like CTs, digitized X rays, MRIs and ultrasounds from one location to another. This is for the purpose of sharing studies and findings with various other radiologists and physicians who are not physically present at the location where the images are generated. This facilitates the interpretation of these noninvasive studies remotely.
It allows radiologists to provide services without actually having to be at the location of the patient. This is particularly important when a sub-specialist such as an MRI radiologist, neuroradiologist, pediatric radiologist, or musculoskeletal radiologist is needed, since these professionals are generally only located in large metropolitan areas working during daytime hours. Teleradiology allows for trained specialists to be available 24/7.
Modalities catered at Krsnaa Diagnostics:
Scans like CTs, MRIs and X rays can be effectively and easily transferred to eminent radiologists in various locations for a detailed report.
A CT or MRI scan may be ordered to help diagnose muscle and bone disorders such as bone tumors and fractures or to pinpoint the location of a tumor, infection or blood clot.
The radiologist will review and interpret your scan and prepare a report as soon as it’s completed, which typically takes about 24 hours.
Clinical Applications :
Teleradiology enables research scientists to consult with radiologists and physicians from the confines of their lab, without needing to actually travel anywhere.
This method can also be used for teaching and training purposes, wherein lectures and demonstrations of medical procedures can be effectively shared across a digitized platform.
Teleradiology is particularly useful when sub specialty reporting is required. Radiologists who have an expertise in specialties such as neuroradiology, oncology imaging and pediatrics can be consulted easily for quick and effective treatment.
