[Photographic screening for diabetic retinopathy in the county of North Jutland. The first fully digitalized telemedicine-screening clinic].

Screening for diabetic retinopathy was introduced in Denmark in 1988. At present, screening is carried out in four of the 14 counties, thus being available to a minority of diabetic subjects. According to the WHO but also the National Board of Health, all diabetic patients should undergo screening for diabetic retinopathy.
