Abstract: By means of a two-way audiovisual microwave circuit, physicians at the Massachusetts General Hospital provided medical care to 1000 patients 2.7 miles away at the Logan International Airport Medical Station. This study reports on this service which demonstrates that telediagnosis can increase the availability of quality medical care. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
