'''Teleradiology''' is the electronic transmission of radiological patient images, such as [[x-ray]]s, [[CT]]s, and [[MRI]]s, from one location to another for the purposes of interpretation and/or consultation. Typically this is done over standard [[telephone]] lines, [[wide area network]] (WAN), or over a [[local area network]] (LAN). Through teleradiology, images can be sent to another part of the hospital, or to other locations around the world.
