title: Imlink and continuing medical education: the use of an image transfer system to broadcast teaching cases nationally.
abstract: Imlink, a personal computer based image storage and transfer system, has been used regularly in Oxford since 1989, primarily to transmit computed tomography (CT) brain scans to the regional neurosurgery centre for management advice. Recently this system has been used to send a weekly educational programme (CT and magnetic resonance imaging neuroradiology cases) to district general hospitals.
