Die Zukunft der Teleradiologie: Ergebnisse des Expertentreffens Teleradiologie des Gesundheitsnetzkongresses 2001

Legal prerequisites have substantial influence on the development of teleradiology. At an expert meeting (Mannheim, 8.6.2001) a proposal for a teleradiology article in the new German x-ray ordinance has been set up. An exception of the demand for a doctor trained in radiation protection at the point of examination shall be established for emergency cases. To realize the intended improvement of patient care measurements for quality assurance concerning the medical personnel and processes are necessary. Along with other current developments the basis of secure regional teleradiology networks is now built up.
