Against the background of Norwegian conditions, the authors outline the equipment needed to launch a teleradiology unit, and what the clinician using the unit might expect of such an imaging facility. They also discuss whether the unit should be organised with the needs of emergency care in mind or as an integrated part of everyday routine at the radiology department, how financing and judicial issues have been managed so far, and whether the introduction of teleradiology might effect relationships between health care personnel and patients.

Today, the majority of paroxysmal tachycardias can be cured by radiofrequency catheter ablation, obviating the need to use anti-arrhythmia drugs or open heart surgery. The history, the indications, the results and complications of current practice are reviewed.

The Nordic Network in Preventive Cardiology (NNPC), a new forum intended to promote collaboration between the Nordic countries in the epidemiology and prevention of cardiovascular disease, was founded in November 1996 at a meeting of 30 representatives from nine Nordic cardiovascular centres. The plans include among other things the creation of a data base of population and intervention studies, to organize seminars and workshops, to standardize measuring techniques, questionnaires and analysing methods. The NNPC has established contract with the European Society of Cardiology and various centres in the Nordic countries.

Positron emission tomography (PET) is used as diagnostic and in identifying patients with reversible ischaemic dysfunction, and for non-invasive investigation of myocardial perfusion. The development of new positron-emitting tracers and user-friendly techniques suggests that the method is suitable for much wider usage, and usage over a large range of applications.

Smoking, lipid disorders, hypertension and diabetes are well known risk factors for cardiovascular disease. Many individuals are characterised by a genetically determined predisposition and moreover, psychosocial factors and an inappropriate life style may exert adverse effects on biological variables. Evidence exists which suggests that in such cases various ageing processes may be accelerated. Studies of apoptosis regulation can yield improved understanding of such phenomena as atherosclerotic plaque rupture and such structural cardiovascular changes as left ventricular hypertrophy. A possible clinical result of such events may be manifest myocardial infarction, followed by heart failure and a predisposition to arrhythmia. The recent identification of apopain, a proteolytic enzyme associated with apoptosis, may eventually enable drugs to be developed for the regulation of apoptosis.
