Digital dermoscopy.

Abstract

Digital dermatoscopic images are acquired with digital cameras or video camera and frame grabber combinations. These images can be compressed, transmitted, or archived; combined with clinical anamnestic information for medical record purposes; or attached to body surface diagrams for mole mapping applications. Image analysis software, which might interpret the images to produce a computer-assisted or fully automated diagnosis, is under development.

[In memory of our Jewish colleagues who were murdered or committed suicide during the National Socialist Era].

With this article, we commemorate our Jewish colleagues who were murdered or committed suicide during the National Socialist Era in 1933-1945. Additionally, this article should provide an impulse to create a worthy memorial place. We thereby propose to put up commemorative plaques, e.g. in front of the administrative office of the German Dermatologic Society. Fifty-six Jewish dermatologists were killed in concentration camps in the National Socialist Era; 23 died in Theresienstadt, 19 in Auschwitz, and 14 in other concentration or extermination camps. Thirteen Jewish dermatologists committed suicide.
