Abstract

Telemedicine applications have gained attention as a means to improve access to remote diagnostics in underserved regions such as Northern Nigeria. The analysis is based on observational data from existing telemedicine platforms operating in the region. The findings suggest that strategic interventions can significantly enhance telemedicine adoption and outcomes in remote diagnostics. Further research should focus on developing standardised protocols for telemedicine applications to improve diagnostic accuracy and patient engagement.
