ABSTRACT
Teleradiology solutions are playing an essential role during the COVID-19 outbreak. Activity at radiology departments must be maintained and adapted to this new situation beyond teleradiology. Teleworking should be extended to the rest of non-medical radiology department areas. A comprehensive perspective based on our own experience during the COVID-19 outbreak has been performed highlighting the value of teleworking for almost all areas implied in the workflow of radiology departments beyond radiologists. Personal and technical requirements for successfully adapting to this new scenario are discussed including the opportunities that this unprecedent situation is bringing for reorganizing workflow and developing new projects. KEY POINTS ⢠Teleradiology solutions are playing an essential role during the COVID-19 outbreak. ⢠Teleworking should be extended to the rest of non-medical radiology department areas whenever possible.
