The emergence of a new generation of "point-and-shoot" digital cameras offers doctors a compact, portable and user-friendly solution to the recording of highly detailed digital photographs and video images. This work highlights the use of such technology, and provides information for those who wish to record, store and display their own medical images.
Over a 3-month period, a digital camera was carried by a doctor in a busy, adult emergency department and used to record a range of clinical images that were subsequently transferred to a computer database.
In total, 493 digital images were recorded, of which 428 were photographs and 65 were video clips. These were successfully used for teaching purposes, publications and patient records.
This study highlights the importance of informed consent, the selection of a suitable package of digital technology and the role of basic photographic technique in developing a successful digital database in a busy clinical environment.
新一代“傻瓜式”数码相机的出现为医生提供了一种紧凑、便携且用户友好的解决方案，用于记录高度详细的数码照片和视频图像。这项工作突出了此类技术的应用，并为那些希望记录、存储和展示自己医学图像的人提供信息。
在3个月的时间里，一名医生在繁忙的成人急诊科携带一台数码相机，用于记录一系列临床图像，随后将这些图像传输到计算机数据库。
总共记录了493张数码图像，其中428张是照片，65张是视频片段。这些图像成功用于教学目的、出版物和患者记录。
本研究强调了知情同意的重要性、选择合适的数字技术组合以及基本摄影技术在繁忙临床环境中建立成功数字数据库中的作用。
