مستخلص: Background: Teleconsultations have gained prominence as a viable method for delivering medical services remotely. In oral radiology, the ability to interpret radiographic images accurately is crucial for diagnosing and treating various dental conditions. The use of teleconsultations in this domain holds promise for extending specialized care to patients who are geographically distant from dental healthcare facilities.
Materials and Methods: A total of 50 patients' oral radiographic images were collected for analysis in this study. These images were obtained from diverse geographical locations, showcasing the applicability of teleconsultations. Two groups of dental professionals, one conducting in-person evaluations and the other performing remote interpretations through teleconsultations, participated in the study. The radiographic findings were assessed for concurrence between the two groups. Statistical analysis included the calculation of P values to determine the level of agreement between the in-person and teleconsultation interpretations.
Results: The results of this study revealed a substantial level of agreement between in-person and teleconsultation interpretations of oral radiographic images. The calculated P values indicated a statistically significant concordance between the two evaluation methods ( P < .05). This suggests that teleconsultations can be a reliable approach for oral radiology interpretation, offering comparable results to traditional in-person evaluations.
Conclusion: In conclusion, teleconsultations have demonstrated their potential as an effective means of interpreting oral radiographic images remotely.
Competing Interests: There are no conflicts of interest.
