Store-and-forward (S&F) telehealth system has been becoming an increasing application in remote medical consultations. In this paper, we will introduce three novel S&F telehealth systems we developed for ophthalmological, dental and emergency applications. We will explain the general system architecture of the S&F systems. Then we will focus on the specific features and components in each system implemented for meeting their respective clinical requirements. In the final section we will present further implementation details and practices and provide discussions.
