Abstract

Aim:

To search feasibility and reliability of Telemedicine Systems (TS) in the remote multidisciplinary oncology conference for decision making and treatment of liver lesions.

Material and Methods:

By an experimental TS, twenty six (n=26) specialists based on a series of five (N=5) simulated remote image examinations, assessed sensitivity-specificity of the remote examination of the Liver (L) for neoplastic diseases and damages (Virtual Examination=VE).

Results:

Analysis showed injuries (sensitivity=96%), injuries of the capsula (sensitivity=91.7%), hematomas (sensitivity=91,7%), non-neoplastic diseases (specificity=100%), neoplastic diseases (sensitivity=100%).

Conclusion:

The VE of the (L) in combination with high-tech visualization and multimedia and the remote participation of liver surgical oncology, oncology, radiology, pathology and cytology experts composes a feasible and reliable e-Multidisciplinary Oncologic Conference for a Personalized and Optimum Decision Making and Treatment in Liver Cancer.
