- Abstract
Specific radiological requirements have to be considered for realization of telemedicine. In this article the goals and requirements for an extensive implementation of teleradiology are defined from the radiological user's point of view. Necessary medical, legal and professional prerequisites for teleradiology are presented. Superior requirements, such as data security and privacy or standardization of communication, must be realized. Application specific requirements, e. g. quality and extent of teleradiological functions as well as technological alternatives, are discussed. Each project must be carefully planned in relation to one's own needs, extent of functions and system selection. Topics like legal acceptance of electronic documentation, reimbursement of teleradiology and liability must be clarified in the future.
