Scope note: 1. It is the act performed by a physician, at a distance, with evaluation of the symptoms, for definition and direction of the patient to the appropriate type of assistance needed or to a specialist. The doctor should point out and record that it is not a medical diagnosis. In telescreening the health establishment must offer and guarantee the entire system of regulation for patient referral.

Telescreening describes the use of a first or second opinion through a remote connection in screening programmes. Either medical data is transferred to a remote specialist for primary evaluation, e.g. in the case that a specific medical qualification is required. Another scenario involves a second opinion in order to increase the quality of the screening process. An example in the form of teleradiology would be the use of screening centres in mammography screening. The data transmitted during telescreening can take any form from digital X-Ray images to video files or ECG or laboratory data.
