Telepatologija- problemi i rješenja u Hrvatskoj

Telepathology is becoming a widely used tool.It s application seems to be of best value in countries with relatively few pathologists or with special geographical or organisational circumstances such as few reference centres or long distances between peripheral and university hospitals.In Croatia the recent war and occupation of large parts of territory by Serbian troops(1991-95)resulting in severe communication problems, stimulated introduction of telepathology systems.Specially challenging was the need of introducing systems which could be based on old-fashioned infrastructure and used by routine pathologists.This resulted in intraduction and continuous development of image datebase and telepathology programs ISSA and PHAROS.These systems enabled still("frozen")image transmission with parallel voice or textual communication.In this paper the development of tools for "scanning"of still images, one of the major problems in still image telepathology is highlighted.Based on the telepathology experience a national teleradiology network was established in 1998 and to day a national islands telemedicine project is under way.
