Abstract

Teleradiology is the electronic transmission of radiologic images from one location to another for the purpose of interpretation and/or consultation. Today, images can be easily transmitted to another location using the high-speed internet. In medical area, teleradiology has developed rapidly in recent 10 years due to the imbalance between the demand and availability of diagnostic services. However, teleradiology in dentistry is still inactive. I would like to overview the current teleradiology system, and discuss the necessity and the potentiality.
