Abstract
A teleradiology system connecting 35 workstations in 27 hospitals was established in Croatia. In two years of operation, 2071 consultations were conducted using the system at an average rate of four neurosurgical teleconsultations per day. Eighty patients required urgent transfer to the tertiary hospital and 181 required non-urgent transfer. An additional 181 patients remained in their local hospital and were treated under the supervision of the tertiary hospital. The avoidance of unnecessary patient transfer led to significant cost savings.
