[Teleradiology with personal computers].
A system to transmit radiographic images with the aid of a personal computer (PC) via phone line is presented. The pictures are recorded by a camcorder and digitized by the PC. They are sent to the receiver by a modem via phone line. The different steps can be programmed. MR and CT pictures as well as ordinary x-ray pictures have been transmitted. It takes about 45 s to send a picture. It arrives in good quality, and findings are clearly represented. After the sending process is completed, all pictures can be reviewed in seconds. The presented system is interesting for its low price when a PC is available.
