This paper deals with the description of a telecommunication project which is initiated by Metaxas Pathology Laboratory. In the first section we discuss a comprehensive computer supported information system which was installed in the laboratory. Special emphasis is given at the design of the communication subsystem. Then, the configuration of the diagnostic equipment is described. The last section of the paper focuses on the discussion of the experimental use of an integrated "low cost" system for interconnection among the Metaxas Pathology laboratory, the Pathology Department of the University of Crete, and the Technological Educational Institute (TEI) of Athens.
