This paper is the systematic review of peer-reviewed research papers and research journal articles about telemedicine technology and its future in the Bangladesh context. Telemedicine technology, Clinical applications, Communication technology, Wireless technology, Modern tools in telemedicine are mainly needed to describe for a better understanding of the telemedicine area. Although uses of telemedicine at all over the world are increasing day by day, still now in Bangladesh it is a matter of concern because of its quality, services, and effectiveness. In this paper, we will show that the available research on telemedicine are failed to provide satisfactory specifications of the exact telemedicine technologies and to explore perfect technologies in depth and also the generalize satisfaction with telemedicine technologies are needed to improve because of deficiencies in the methodology of the current standard. We will describe all the technologies and then propose a new pathway of telemedicine for the future of Bangladesh. All technologies will be in the same article and compare it with future scope for using in Bangladesh.

Telemedicine, Technologies, Applications, Systematic review, Effectiveness, Future of Bangladesh

By this systematic survey of the literature on the telemedicine technology systems, we see only 20% shows actual telemedicine technology, and publications that we searched, only 2 used material experiments. To determine technical parameters, the vast majority used subjective measures. No research work meets perfect systematic review of the entire end to end system. Therefore we have evaluated and proposed an evaluation method based on objective testing.
