Abstract
Telemedicine is becoming increasingly important to address the shortage of gastrointestinal surgeons and disparities in domestic and international treatment outcomes for patients with colorectal cancer. The development of a low-latency communication system using existing communication infrastructure (shared internet access: SIA) is necessary to promote the use of telemedicine. The aim of this study was to develop a low-latency communication system using SIA. We conducted an experiment between Sapporo and Tokyo using an ultralow-latency communication system for remote medical education (TELEPRO®). The latency was measured using 2000 annotations from a monitor in Sapporo, which confirmed a median latency of 27.5ms. A low-latency communication system based on SIA with latency lower than the maximum allowable latency for telemedicine was developed successfully.
