Telehealth in Africa.

: This paper deals with the developments of the project "Telehealth in Africa", to establish a link between more European reference Hospital Centers and some African Hospital Centers, connected with Peripheral Units of Assistance, to transmit and receive health diagnostic images, etc. The project has been developed by the European Collaboration Group for Telemedicine in developing countries which was created in collaboration with ITU (International Telecommunication Union). A demonstration of telehealth from Milan (Italy), Toulouse (France), to Abidjan (Ivory Coast, Africa) and Midrand (South Africa) proves that it is possible for a diverse group of intergovernmental organizations, non-governmental organizations and the private sector to work together for the benefit of all participants and, most of all, for developing countries.
