Lymph node. Evaluation.
The photographs represent a novel clinical approach to the identification of sentinel lymph nodes (SLN). They are unique in the photographer's Canadian institution as they represent the first example of digital photography where time was limited by the nature of the medical procedure. The photographs were shot using an Olympus C2500 at 1712 x 1368 pixels using the super macro feature of the camera, manually white balanced to the operating room lights.
