Following the successful Clinical Photography course for Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons, this course is extended to a larger audience. Clinical photographs are an extremely useful part of the clinical record in many areas of surgery and medicine. The ability to take, process and archive digital photographs is essential when hospital medical illustration departments may be unavailable or non-existent. This practical and lecture based course provides clinicians with the skills to produce accurate, high-quality digital photographs. Faculty includes members of Calumet Photographic and Canon staff, experts in clinical digital photography, medico-legal issues and photographic technique.
