General
-
Teleradiology is a means of electronically transmitting
radiographic patient images and consultative text from one
location to another.
-
Teleradiology allows the rapid transmission of images from one
location to another, regardless of distance. Communities located
a considerable distance from a major centre and where there is
insufficient work to sustain a fully staffed imaging department
would currently have very limited access to imaging and
subsequent reporting.

-
Teleradiology technology helps hospitals get on-call diagnostic
medical interpretations quickly and accurately. With remote
Teleradiology technology and round-the-clock coverage,
teleradiology services help hospitals to continually service
patients
Market
- Costs for
teleradiology equipment can vary from $15,000 to $20,000 for low
end equipment to more than $100,000 for high performance
systems. Typically a high quality sending station will cost
approximately $35,000 to $40,000 and a dual CRT
receiving/viewing station will run in the $45,000 to $55,000
range.
- The
medical equipment market is growing at a rapid pace; the market
is expected to increase by US$ 1.7 billion by 2010 as against
US$1.2 billion currently. The demand for hi-tech products is
close to 80 percent of the overall market in India. The domestic
market comprises of low-tech devices.
- The demand
for radiology services is growing rapidly, while there is a
shortage of radiologists the world over. In India there is an
abundance of radiologists. By outsourcing Teleradiology to
India, overseas hospitals can be assured of competent and
trained professionals, time zone adherence to HIPAA (Health
Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) mandates and round
the clock services.
