To evaluate the impact of telemedicine system in rural hospitals for diagnosis and treatment of Diabetes retinopathy and Diabetes macular edema.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Telemedicine system mainly contains a comprehensive eye examination electric-records (E-record), which can transfer the fundus pictures from rural hospitals to professional Graders (golden standard for a diagnose of Diabetes Retinopathy (DR) and Diabetes Macular Edema(DME)).
