Abstract
What you need to know
Covid-19 has accelerated the use of medical photography, with many specialist services requesting it as part of the referral process
Poor quality images may lead to misinterpretation and a delay in diagnosis or treatment, but training in medical photography for clinicians and patients is limited
Ways to improve the quality of images captured with mobile devices include taking both overview and close-up images, increasing light, and holding devices at an appropriate distance from the subject.
