Four years with teleradiology: a technical description
Abstract:
Since September 1992, Troms Military Hospital (Norway) has been connected to the larger University Hospital of Tromsø by a teleradiology link transmitting about 6000 examinations annually. In the spring of 1995, the system was upgraded with a digital X-ray unit, thereby almost eliminating the scanning of analog radiographs. This article describes the technical development of the link. The discussion suggests ways of improving the teleradiology link, particularly in terms of integrating the radiology information system (RIS) and picture archiving and communication system (PACS).

X-ray Imaging
Computed Tomography
The technique was invented in the 1970s and is based on the principle that as X-rays pass through the body, they are absorbed or reflected at different levels. In the technique, a patient lies on a motorized platform while a computerized axial tomography (CAT) scanner rotates...

Pulmonary Angiogram
A Pulmonary Angiogram is an invasive procedure involving injecting a contrast medium through a catheter threaded into the pulmonary artery or the right side of the heart to visualize the pulmonary vasculature. Computed Tomography (CT) scans have mainly replaced this...

Definition and Purpose
An X-ray, or radiograph, is a non-invasive method that uses ionizing radiation to take images of internal structures. It is mainly used in cardiac imaging to examine the heart, lungs, and major blood vessels, aiming to identify abnormalities in the heart's size, shape, and position, such as heart failure, congenital defects, and vascular...
