RESUMO
This paper considers the potential that digital capture has for patient photography in a large teaching hospital, as well as drawing attention to the flaws of the technology which, at the present time, make it an unrealistic option for general use. It suggests that a 'hybrid' system--of analogue capture, digital storage and digital output--remains in place until digital camera technology becomes cheaper, more stable and more comparable with current 35 mm film technology. It makes recommendations for the digital storage and output of these images, and argues that the 35 mm slide be gradually phased out of large teaching hospitals' lecture theatres in order to help pave the way for a total digital service.
