[Computerized photodocumentation with automatic exposure technique in ENT endoscopy (author's transl)].
Proper lighting and exposure of color photographs were often the main problem in endophotography. The photographic equipment used for different regions of the body was complicated or troublesome to handle. In most cases, time and many tests were necessary, yet good photographic results were rarely obtained. To facilitate handling and to overcome the numerous exposure problems in photographic documentation an electronic TTL computer flash with autodynamic controlled flash energy was developed at the department of ORL at the University of Freiburg in 1980. With the single-handed endoscopic photographic system and the electronic TTL computer flash with automatic exposure technique, endoscopic photography becomes a simple and successful procedure. Even an unskilled "endophotographer" will be able to handle the described system easily. Getting good photographic results in endophotography is no longer a time-consuming and elaborate procedure.
