There are many reasons for practicing teleradiology reporting. The main reason is mismatch between supply and demand for radiologists in radiology and cardiac imaging domains. Night time coverage, vacation coverage, expert and second opinion, sub-speciality opinion, quality assurance are other reasons for the emergence of teleradiology practices. Centers who can not afford a full time radiologist will also opt for teleradiology reporting. Very remote centers where access to experts is an issue are making use of teleradiology and telecardiology reporting.
