Colposcopy and computer graphics: a new method?

Abstract:

:A new method is herein described that uses the most recent computer science techniques to obtain digitalized colposcopic images that may be useful not only as documents, but also as research tools. Because computer graphics is a recent and ever-growing discipline, our method, too, might undergo considerable improvements: some possible improvements are hypothesized in the text. The most striking features of this method are the excellent quality of images, their easy reproducibility, and the reasonable cost.
