In order to provide a practical and user-friendly telemedicine and imaging package for veterinarians, we had to include all the essential elements. The fundamental and enabling link in our package is the computerized image-digitizing system, or teleporter. Developed internally, and utilizing proprietary software, the teleporter allows conversion of the images for transmission over ordinary phone lines.
Vertical orientation protects the mirror and lens from particulates and dust.
Fixed optical components, and a light path which is limited to a single mirror eliminates image deterioration due to vibration and reflective interference. The film is drawn through the scanning unit without the use of rollers to avoid damaging the film. It has only one moving part which never requires adjustment. Variable resolution for moir pattern elimination, exposure and gamma corrections for dark films, and 12 to 8 bit optimization curves allow for perfect scans every time. The RemoteVet software package is Windows based and user friendly, to allow fast, accurate and guaranteed case transmissions.
