    The paper considers the possibilities of applying telemedicine, a relatively new branch combining medicine and telecommunications, in diagnosing occupational asbestosis. Nowadays, telemedicine has been extensively used in an ever-increasing number of areas such as dermatology, oncology, radiology, surgery, cardiology, and psychiatry. The paper gives an example of possible applications in Croatia. Telemedicine is expected to significantly reduce absenteeism and travel expenses incurred by various laboratory tests. Furthermore, the diagnostic procedure would be considerably quicker, thereby improving the overall health condition of the population living in the immediate vicinity of asbestos factories. Our research has been conducted in the southern Croatian town of Ploče with an asbestos plant, but possible application refers to all major hospitals, rural areas, and the islands.U članku se govori o mogućnostima primjene telemedicine, kao relativno nove grane medicine i telekomunikacija u dijagnostici profesionalne azbestoze. Danas se u svijetu telemedicina rabi u sve viÅ”e područja, kao Å”to su: dermatologija, onkologija, radiologija, kirurgija, kardiologija, psihijatrija, a ovo je samo primjer mogućnosti za razvoj tog područja u naÅ”oj državi. Očekuje se da bi primjenom telemedicine bili smanjeni izgubljeni radni sati, smanjeni putni troÅ”kovi potrebni za razne nalaze, ubrzan postupak dijagnosticiranja, Å”to bi dovelo do poboljÅ”anja zdravstvenih prilika u populaciji u blizini tvornice s azbestom. U članku je uzet primjer grada Ploča, ali se moguće primjene odnose na sva mjesta udaljena od većih bolničkih centara, ruralna područja i otoke
