Abstract
Dear Editor, In 2021, we published an article titled "The Art of Medical Photography in Breast Surgery": Clinical, Intra-operative and Specimen Photography- Standards and Recommendationsâ? in Chirurgia (1). The main objective of this article was to define medical visual documentation, which is now an indispensable part of breast surgery, with its purposes and justifications for use, and to set standards by putting specific suggestions to reach good medical visual documentation defined as high quality and academically effective in breast surgery. hrough the Medical Visual Documentation Unit, which started to work on the subject in 2013 and was established within Kocaeli University Faculty of Medicine of Kocaeli Turkiye in 2015, we brought an academic perspective to the subject and tried to add standards to the literature to reach better medical visual documentation with the support of the Faculty of Fine Arts Photography Department. In line with the studies carried out until 2021 and the technologies of that period, we determined and published the recommendations that will enable us to reach the highest quality and academic effective medical visual documentation in breast surgery (1). As a result of the technology and experience at that time, we recommended the use of a professional camera with a changeable lens and with an exposure control system as a best choice for high-level facilities for medical visual documentation in breast surgery to obtain good medical visual documentation (1).
