Abstract:
Medical photography is a specialized genre of photography concerned with taking photographs beneficial to medical practice. This study aimed at delineating trends in medical photography practices among graduate students at Makerere University in Kampala, Uganda. Data suggest most graduate students first encounter medical photographs in their classes (68.1%), although some had taken their own medical photographs (13.5%), primarily using their mobile phone (81.6%). However, the majority of the photographs (66%) were taken by their colleagues.
