Teleradiology is the transmission of radiological patient images, such as x-rays, CTs, and MRIs, from one location to another for the purposes of sharing studies with other radiologists and physicians. Teleradiology is a growing technology.
Teleradiology improves patient care by allowing radiologists to provide services without actually having to be at the location of the patient. This is particularly important when a sub-specialist such as a MRI radiologist, neuroradiologist, pediatric radiologist, or musculoskeletal radiologist is needed, since these professionals are generally only located in large metropolitan areas working during daytime hours. Teleradiology allows for trained specialists to be available .
Teleradiology utilizes standard network technologies such as the internet, telephone lines, wide area network, local area network (LAN) and the latest high tech being computer clouds. Specialized software is used to transmit the images and enable the radiologist to effectively analyze what can be hundreds of images for a given study.
Technologies such as advanced graphics processing, voice recognition, and image compression are often used in teleradiology. Through tele radiology and mobile DICOM viewers, images can be sent to another part of the hospital, or to other locations around the world.

Why You Need a MRI Second Opinion

A magnetic resonance imaging (MRI )exam is among the most powerful diagnostic tools for detecting many types of illnesses. Your doctor ordered an MRI exam because he wanted to make sure you had the best diagnostic care possible, leading to the best treatment, if treatment is needed. An MRI second opinion is an important part of that process. MRI images are captured by machines using enormous magnets and evaluated by radiologists. However, the interpretation of MRI results is not clear cut. The machine provides a view inside the body, but it is up to human eyes and the judgment of the radiologist to analyze what the machine has recorded.

Help Ensure the Accuracy of Your Exam with an MRI Second Opinion

For the best diagnostic results, you need an MRI second opinion. Studies have found that not every radiologist will interpret the same MRI picture in exactly the same way. Your course of treatment depends on the exam results. Patients who want the best healthcare will get extra assurance with an MRI second opinion. In particular, many factors can influence the interpretation of an exam – the radiologist's experience level, workload level, fatigue. Radiologists have different opinions, and unfortunately, even the most seasoned physician can simply make a mistake. An MRI second opinion can ensure the accuracy of your exam interpretation.

An MRI Second Opinion is an Investment in Your Health

Also remember that you have invested time traveling to the MRI site and in the exam process itself-- and also likely made some financial investment. A small investment in an MRI second opinion will help you make the most of your efforts so you can feel assured and confident about the results of your exam. MRI exams focus on different areas of the body and examine a variety of conditions. In the abdomen and pelvic area, an MRI can find problems such as tumors and bleeding in the liver, kidneys, and bladder. Blood vessels may be scanned to check for issues such as blockages, and bones and joints may be examined for tumors or infections.

Whatever Your Condition, an MRI Second Opinion Adds Perspective

An MRI scan of the head can find aneurysms and problems with nerves connected with eyes and ears. A chest MRI exam can find damage to the heart or lungs and may also be used to look for breast or lung cancer. There are as many reasons your doctor may have ordered an MRI exam as there are for getting an MRI second opinion. Whatever the specific reason, typically an MRI exam is ordered to check for a serious condition, and an MRI second opinion will help ensure the best possible diagnosis and treatment.
