Why Do I Need a Remote Second Opinion? 

When you are considering coming to the United States for your treatment, it’s better to learn the opinion from a medical professional in the U.S. Will this make a difference? How will you be treated differently? Physicians at Keck Medicine will evaluate your medical records to give specific suggestions based on the latest treatment plans and technologies in the U.S. You will be able to make an informed decision on your plan for a lower cost than if you were physically present here.

Telepathology 

Telepathology allows our expert pathologists to remotely read medical images and slides via a digital scanner to help treat complicated medical cases. We collaborate with doctors from around the world, including teams at Nanshan Hospital and Shantou University Medical College in China, to provide our expertise for diagnosis and second opinions on complex diseases. Foreign hospitals interested in partnering with us for telepathology can email intl@med.usc.edu for more information.
