Telephone line transmission of rectilinear radionuclide scans. Report of a pilot project.

The General Electric-Elscint system for telephone line transmission of rectillinear scans has been tested and with certain limitations found to be acceptable in terms of diagnostic accuracy for many scan procedures. The system tested had some logistic disadvantage requiring batch processing of the scans, and making quality control of the scans difficult with the one video data processor available at the reference centre.
