The information may be used for diagnosis, therapy, follow‐up, and/or education, and may include any of the following:
• Patient medical records
• Medical images
• Live two‐way audio and video
• Output data from medical devices and sound and video files
Electronic systems used will incorporate network and software security protocols to protect the confidentiality of patient identification and imaging data and will include measures to safeguard the data and to ensure its integrity against intentional or unintentional corruption.
Expected Benefits:

• More efficient medical evaluation and management.
• Obtaining the expertise of a remote specialist.

• In rare cases, information transmitted may not be sufficient (e.g. poor resolution of images) to allow for appropriate medical decision making by the physician and consultant(s);
• Delays in medical evaluation and treatment could occur due to deficiencies or failures of the equipment;
. May experience discomfort, bruising, and pain in the injection site.
. May cause inflammation of the vein used for injection, phlebitis.
• In very rare instances, security protocols could fail, causing a breach of privacy of personal medical information;
