“…They predicted that telecardiology, tele-endoscopy, teledermatology, tele-ophthalmology, and even tele-behavior therapy specialties would ultimately use this kind of tele-expertise. As far back as 2001, the journal Clinical Techniques in Small Animal Practice devoted an entire issue to telemedicine in veterinary practice [4] with Papageorges [5] predicting widespread use by 2010. Some (for example, [2]) assert that veterinary telemedicine will alleviate the shortage of veterinary specialists, while others [6] caution that technological barriers might prevent either widespread use or increased efficiency.…”

“…All the specialists work remotely; none is on the company's premises. Our goal is to examine whether there is growth potential in this industry, and, coincidentally, to examine if Papageorges's [5] prediction has been fulfilled. To maintain confidentiality, the firm requests anonymity and even requests that we disguise its current particular specialty.…”

Veterinary telemedicine has existed since the late 1990s. Various scholars have predicted its growth, others its decline. We constructed a system dynamics model of a veterinary telemedicine company providing services in one specialty in the industry. The model showed that severe shortages of specialists would limit growth in that, even with extensive marketing efforts. This limitation is likely to hold in other aspects of veterinary telemedicine. The paper concludes with recommendations for the company and the industry.

Veterinary surgeons have a long tradition of consulting one another about problem cases and many have unwittingly practised telemedicine when discussing cases by telephone or by sending laboratory reports by telefax. Specific veterinary telemedicine applications have been in use since the early 1980s, but little research has been undertaken in this field. The Pubmed and CAB International databases were searched for the following Boolean logic-linked keywords; veterinary AND telemedicine, veterinary AND telecare, animal AND telemedicine, animal AND telecare and veterinary AND e-mail and an additional search was made of the worldwide web, using Google Scholar. This returned 25 papers which were reviewed. Of these only 2 report research. Sixteen papers had no references and 1 author was associated with 13 papers. Several themes emerge in the papers reviewed. These include remarks about the use of telemedicine, the benefits that can and are derived from the use of telemedicine, areas of practice in which telemedicine is being used, ethical and legal issues around the practice of telemedicine, image standards required for telemedicine, the equipment that is required for the practice of telemedicine, advice on ways in which digital images can be obtained and educational aspects of telemedicine. These are discussed. Veterinary practice has lagged behind its human counterpart in producing research on the validity and efficacy of telemedicine. This is an important field which requires further research.
