“…However, other factors can also play important roles and should not be overlooked. For example, implementation of an effective telerehabilitation system in any community requires awareness, motivation [ 16 ], and positive attitude of the people involved, in particular end-users and therapists.…”

Introduction. This study aimed to assess rehabilitation professionals' attitude toward implementation and application of telerehabilitation technology as a novel study in rehabilitation academic centers and affiliated clinics in Tehran. Methods. It was a descriptive cross-sectional study. To collect data, a researcher-designed questionnaire was developed. 141 rehabilitation experts participated in the study. Results. A majority of faculty members (78%) and clinicians (89.7%) either were in “definite agreement” or “somewhat agreed” with implementation and application of this technology, which demonstrates an overall positive attitude. Discussion. Based on the positive attitudes of the majority of participants toward implementation and application of this technology and their preferences in offering different telerehabilitation services, it seems that there is an appropriate and desirable acceptance and administrative culture to implement this technology among rehabilitation experts in Tehran. It is thus expected that implementation and application of this technology will be a promising experience in rehabilitation academic centers and affiliate clinics in Tehran.

“…Virtual reality is particularly relevant to the analysis of the relationship between a tumor to be resected and the vascular anatomy of the liver to plan the limits of hepatic resections. Thus the compromise between radicality and organ damage is optimized [21]. In order to develop an operating system available for clinical application in liver surgery, an automatic system of 3-D liver reconstruction from 2-D images of patients accessible using a portable PC was created (Fig.…”

The information age is revolutionizing the practice and education of surgery. The use of video‐conference systems through Integrated Service Digital Network (ISDN) teletransmission connects surgeons around the world without the limits of distance. Teleeducation, teleteaching, teletraining, telementoring, and teleaccreditation have been clearly demonstrated and are now common practice. Pre‐ and perioperative surgical advice may be obtained from expert networks. Patient data can be reconstructed as virtual tridimensional images analyzed by computers, and the surgical procedure can be simulated to obtain an optimal surgical decision. Finally, the use of the Internet will provide access to this information, whenever and wherever necessary, through dedicated websites. It remains to be adequately demonstrated that these means will allow improvement in patient care.

“…The surgical specialties have been rapid adopters of telemedicine compared to other medical specialties, such as radiology, pathology, neurology and psychiatry practices (3)(4)(5). The ultimate goal for surgeons and surgical patients utilizing telemedicine is to minimize in-office preoperative time, while maintaining the adequacy and safety of assessing preoperative patient fitness for surgery.…”

The use of telemedicine and telehealth services has grown exponentially over the past decade and has become increasingly relevant and necessary during the coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. There remains ample opportunity to electronically connect cardiothoracic surgeons with their patients during both preoperative and postoperative visits. In this review, we examine the various implementations of telemedicine within thoracic surgery and explore future applications in this quickly developing field.
