Abstract

Telehealth and telemedicine experienced remarkable growth during and after the recent COVID-19 pandemic. Telehealth is generally defined as nonclinical services that employ telecommunication technology. Telemedicine refers more specifically to remote clinical services including diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment. Nuclear medicine is no exception in employing telemedicine increasingly in clinical practice for image interpretation and treatment consultation and care delivery supervision. There is no doubt that soon, the use of tele-nuclear medicine will increase, comparable to the employment of telecommunication in other fields of medicine. We review the medicolegal and regulatory aspects of the evolution in the clinical practice of medicine through telehealth and telemedicine.
