Camera phone as the medium.

摘要

In terms of health care, camera phones have been used to help diagnose a seizure and from afar both to help diagnose skin lesions and for radiologic studies in patients with acute neurologic problems. They have become almost ubiquitous in some operating rooms. In this figure, a resident physician is taking a picture of an operative procedure for his case logs. Presumably, camera phones will be used to take many of the pictures that appear in the journal's Images in Anesthesiology section.
