Default What is a 'Profile' Picture? - 10-02-2008 , 06:20 AM






I e-mailed a picture I took with my digital camera of my leg wound to
my doctor, and he e-mailed me back, asking me to send him a 'profile'
picture (his words) next time instead so that he could better see the
wound. He said he could not tell much from my 2D picture. I guess he
wants a 3D picture. How would I do that?

Thanks

"In profile" - as an outline. So that any bumps etc. can be seen in, errr...
profile.

Does he mean side-view? I was thinking 3D - I'm probably wrong there.

No 3d picture required. He wants a side view ("lateral view" is the
technical term) that will match up with other medical images or diagrams
that he has, or may have in the future.

Wishing you the best of results.

Thanks guys. I figured for myself after thinking about it that he
wanted that. Dumb me.
