Abstract: The Milan System for Reporting Salivary Gland Cytopathology (MSRSGC), which was adopted in 2018, is an excellent tool for the diagnosis and management of salivary glands lesions. A telemedical application is a valuable tool for cytopathologists in order to manage and promote interlaboratory collaboration. The result is better cytological data management and sharing. Telecytological diagnoses should be as reliable as those made using conventional microscopy. There are very few studies available that have focused on the implementation digital images, captured by static telecytology stations for telemedical applications in the field of cytopathology. The present study aims to evaluate the diagnostic reproducibility of telecytology in salivary glands aspiration specimens among three cytopathologists using representative simages captured by a static telecytology station. The study also examined the agreement between contributor and the reviewer diagnoses.
