CERMUSA and Rural Health Precepting:
• The design of the clinic's telemedicine prototype includes a dermascope, otoscope, document camera, VCR, and a computer
Consulting• In situations where a
physician cannot be on site, local telecommunications provide access to diverse sites with the ability to relay images via Internet2 for expert review
