Types of Telemedicine Real time (Synchronous) type and Store & Forward (Asynchronous) are the two types of telemedicine services. Real time telemedicine could be as simple as a telephone call or as complex as a robotic surgery. It requires the presence of both the parties at the same time and a communication link between them which allows a real time interaction. Video conferencing is a popular method used. Psychiatry, internal medicine and cardiology demands synchronous type telemedicine. Store &Forward or asynchronous type of telemedicine involves acquiring medical data, such as images and bio-signals as first step. These data are then transmitted to a medical specialist for assessment off line at a convenient time. Dermatology, Pathology and Radiology are common specialties in this type. |
