摘要
Ultrasound has great potential as an imaging technology in resource-limited environments. We present a novel tele-ultrasound approach designed to realize that potential by connecting a remote technician to a radiologist. Our preliminary system, based on open-source software and commercial off-the-shelf hardware, uses custom software and a satellite Internet connection to create this link. We also present the results of testing this system in both laboratory and real-world environments.
