摘要: Teleradiolosy, telepathology, and teleoncology are important applications of telemedicine. Recent advances in these fields include a preponderance radiology PACS (Picture Archiving Communications System) users, the implementation around-the-clock teleradiology services at many hospitals, invention first ultrarapid whole-slide digital scanner based on array microscope. These have led to development new health-care-delivery clinical pathway called breast care process (URBC), which has been commercialized as UltraClinics® process. This bundles telemammography, reduced time it takes for woman obtain diagnostic therapeutic breast-care planning from several weeks single day. paper describes UltraClinics detail presents vision network same-day telemedicine-enabled facilities, staffed by virtual group practice teleradiologists, telepathologists, teleoncologists.
