Telemedicine in neurosurgical daily practice

Telemedicine has been in daily practice at our neurosurgical department for five years. in our experience the standard personal computer-based telemed icine systems Medicom(R) and especially RADO Look(R) are reliable, easy to use, and of high quality performance. Telemedicine makes possible better patient management at regional hospitals and the avoidance of patient transports. Therefore treatment costs in neur osurgical patients can be highly reduced.
