title: [Pictorial documentation in orthopaedics (author's transl)].
abstract: The experiences of 60 years of pictorial documentation in an Orthopaedic Clinic are presented. Whereas the evaluation of patient's progress by photographs dominated formerly, nowadays the main interest is frequently centered on scientific illustrations and documentation for teaching, lectures and publications. The paper describes, how these two demands can be met economically by effective utilization of the technical possibilities.
