Abstract:
Medical photography has multiple, important roles. The education of medical practitioners, documentation of disease, response to treatment, research, publication, intraoperative recording and trauma documentation all rely on medical photography. Additionally, there are important medicolegal implications pertaining to medical photography across many medical disciplines. Other than specific image use to document cases, there remains a paucity of urological literature regarding the use of medical photography in Urology. The aims of this 6-month study were to document the use of medical photography by a Reconstructive Urological Service in a tertiary referral centre and to assess the range of urological conditions photographed. A secondary aim was to specifically document intraoperative use of the medical photography.
