Networking company Cisco has been showing off some of the technologies it's working on in its R&D division - including this telehealth station, pictured above.
Corinne Marsolier (right), from Cisco Internet Business Solutions Group's healthcare team, demonstrated how various pieces of healthcare equipment - including a blood pressure cuff and an otoscope camera - can be used remotely to gather data about a patient's condition during a virtual consultation.
Cisco has been trialling the equipment in the A&E department at Aberdeen Royal Infirmary since January and said patient feedback has been positive.
