Practical clinical dermatology: photography with professional results.

During the last decade our office use of photographs to document patient treatment has increased. Many photographs were wasted because of poor quality, others because of mismatched views. Storage was cumbersome, and retrieval was time-consuming. The objective was to produce better quality photographs cost-effectively, with a user-friendly camera system. A professional consultant solved these problems. A specific camera and system to document and take photographs was designed that can be easily implemented in any office practice.
