During its transition to a market economy, Bulgaria benefited from foreign aid provided by Greece. One of the projects was the clinical and educational telemedicine link between the Medical University of Varna in Bulgaria and the Faculty of Medicine of Aristotle University of Thessaloniki in Greece. This began in 1997. In terms of the educational activities, the Bulgarian side of the network supports: an electronic classroom equipped with personal workstations, multimedia projectors and videoconference facilities; electronic design and publishing activities; Web hosting and mail server activities; and satellite communications. Communications are via ISDN. The main clinical experience has been remote consultations in immunology. This experience (admittedly limited) demonstrates that telemedicine can be used to provide assistance to remote colleagues. In addition, the use of telemedicine can greatly improve the quality of care available to travellers and migrant workers in cases where the patient cannot communicate with the attending physician because of a language barrier.
在向市场经济转型的过程中，保加利亚受益于希腊提供的外国援助。其中一个项目是保加利亚瓦尔纳医科大学与希腊塞萨洛尼基亚里士多德大学医学院之间的临床和教育远程医疗联系。这一联系始于1997年。在教育活动方面，该网络的保加利亚一方提供支持：配备个人工作站、多媒体投影仪和视频会议设施的电子教室；电子设计和出版活动；网络托管和邮件服务器活动；以及卫星通信。通信通过综合业务数字网（ISDN）进行。主要的临床经验是在免疫学方面的远程会诊。这一经验（诚然有限）表明，远程医疗可用于为偏远地区的同行提供帮助。此外，在患者因语言障碍无法与主治医生沟通的情况下，使用远程医疗可大大提高为旅行者和移徙工人提供的护理质量。
