The objective of this work was to compare diagnoses achieved through the traditional methods of current pathology practice versus diagnoses achieved through a selection of image on a telediagnostic TV-monitor. The Kappa coefficient between the two protocols of k = 0.26 SE(k) = 0.06 z = k/SE(k) = 4.3 (p < 0.001) allows us to conclude that there is a good reliability between video and glass slide diagnoses.
