Abstract
WE STUDIED the effect of teleradiology (TR) for radiological consultation in a real life situation with an independent family practice center. The hypotheses tested were (1) that TR provides acceptable diagnostic accuracy and (2) that timely radiological consultation is of value to the family practitioner. In prospective and controlled fashion we performed parallel interpretation of roentgenograms and TR images of these roentgenograms. In addition to evaluating the accuracy of the radiological consultation, we investigated the impact of this report on the family practice physician and patient.
