Abstract
Clinical photography is essential in dermatology, in particular in the areas of surgical and cosmetic dermatology and has been evolving rapidly. However, many dermatologists desire more training in clinical photography and a comprehensive literature review of photography in dermatology is lacking. This scoping review aimed to summarize the literature regarding techniques for high-quality photography in dermatology. A literature search was conducted using Embase, MEDLINE, PubMed, and Evidence-Based Medicine databases in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews. This review summarizes information from 74 studies. Camera type, resolution, lens choice, camera settings, environment and set-up, standardization, and types of clinical photography are all important factors in acquisition of high-quality photography. Photography in dermatology is continuously evolving with broader applications. Improved practices and innovations will benefit the quality of images.
