transmitting the requested diagnostic message.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein the request for the diagnostic message comprises information relating to a recipient of the requested diagnostic message.

3. The method of claim 1, wherein the request for the diagnostic message comprises information relating to a requester of the requested diagnostic message.

4. The method of claim 1, wherein the portion of the selected diagnostic is retrieved from a remote storage device.

5. The method of claim 1, wherein the requested diagnostic message comprises a pre-defined template.

6. The method of claim 5, wherein the portion of the selected diagnostic information is retrieved based upon one or more data fields of the pre-defined template.

7. The method of claim 5 wherein the request for the diagnostic message comprises information relating to a recipient of the requested diagnostic message, and the pre-defined template is selected based upon the information relating to a recipient of the requested diagnostic

8. The method of claim 1, wherein the diagnostic information comprises one or more of patient data, medical data, and a medical image.

9. The method of claim 1, further comprising receiving a confirmation message indicating whether the diagnostic message is received by a recipient device.

10. A method comprising:

providing availability information relating to one or more of a plurality of users;

receiving a selection of at least one of the plurality of users;

receiving a selection of diagnostic information;

retrieving information relating to the selection of the at least one of the plurality of users and the selection of diagnostic information;

generating a diagnostic message, wherein the diagnostic message comprises at least a portion of the retrieved information; and

transmitting the diagnostic message to the at least one of the plurality of users selected.

11. The method of claim 10, wherein the portion of the selected diagnostic information is retrieved based upon one or more data fields of the pre-defined template.
