[Use of color photocopying machine in the reproduction of images in surgery].
Diagnostic imaging is becoming more and more important and effective in modern medicine. The author describes a quick, inexpensive and simple technique suitable for reproducing immediately colour images of surgical specimens (recovered from the operating room) by means of a colour photocopying machine. Untrained people too are able to run this method that allows the production of well defined images helpful for a closer and more careful real time communication between the surgeon and the pathologist. This document can also be part of the patient's record, and it's useful for the discussion with other physicians involved in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. The method saves the specimen from every injury and allows its investigation by the pathologist.
