A Multisite Telemammography System for Remote Management of Screening Mammography: An Assessment of Technical, Operational, and Clinical Issues

Objective This paper describes a high-quality, multisite telemammography system to enable “almost real-time” remote patient management while the patient remains in the clinic. One goal is to reduce the number of women who would physically need to return to the clinic for additional imaging procedures (termed “recall”) to supplement “routine” imaging of screening mammography.
