Claim One:
1. A method for controlling transmission of medical images, the method comprising: monitoring over time estimates of bandwidth of a channel communicatively coupling an imaging location with another location remote from the imaging location; communicating the estimates to a system at the imaging location; identifying at least one of a region-of-interest (ROI) mask or one or more transmission parameters for the channel; and adjusting at least one of the ROI mask or the one or more transmission parameters based on the monitored estimates of the bandwidth for communicating the medical images, wherein adjusting the ROI mask includes adjusting at least one of a compression or a frame rate of the ROI mask such that the at least one of the compression or the frame rate within the ROI mask is different than the at least one of the compression or the frame rate outside of the ROI mask.
