Flash and Lighting
Lighting is critical to the production of high-quality, standardized photographs in rhinoplasty. e brightness of the ash determines the f-stop, which can aect the depth of eld. Proper use of the ash allows the best possible depth of eld, whereas excessive ash can lead to inappropriate aperture settings that can re­sult in poor color quality and images with a washed-out appearance. Variations in lighting arrangements, light sources, and light positions can have a dramatic eect on photographic results.
Lighting is critical to the production of high-quality, standardized photographs in rhinoplasty.
To demonstrate subtle external anatomy, including surface defects, contours of the tip and tip-dening points, shape and symmetry of the dorsum, and the ap­pearance and position of the alar cartilages, photographic lighting must provide high-contrast detail of the anatomy and highlight texture and sharp lines of de­marcation. An intense light source or sources such as studio strobe lighting, on­camera ash, ring ash, or twin ash without diusion are used to obtain this denition. is is in contrast to the so, even, diused lighting desired for facial rejuvenation surgery.

Although on-camera ashes have a tendency to create harsh shadows and un­even lighting, it is not always possible to have a dedicated photography studio with separate lighting. To optimize results with an on-camera ash, it is impor­tant to consider the position of the ash in relationship to the camera to elimi­nate shadowing. is is particularly important in rhinoplasty, because lateral

and oblique views are essential to the analysis. To prevent a projected shadow, the ash should be on the same side as the anterior part of the patient, eectively casting the shadow behind the patient. e image on the le (p. ) was taken with the on-camera ash on the same side as the anterior part of the patient to cast the shadow behind the patient, whereas the image on the right does not have the appropriate ash orientation, resulting in signicant shadowing of the patient’s prole.
Ring ashes tend to create even, at lighting that does not emphasize nasal anat­omy. On-camera twin ashes are portable and simulate a studio ash system, but have a narrow ash distance.
e most common system for medical photography is the studio ash system.

For high quality and consistency in rhinoplasty photography, we advocate the quarter light system as a major studio system.
,
e quarter light system consists of two symmetrically sized lights placed at -degree angles to the patient-camera axis, with the patient  to inches from the backdrop, depending on the use of backlighting. e use of a backlight or backlights is recommended to provide sharp contrast with the background and to further dene nasal and facial anat­omy. e horizontal angle of incidence is the angle between the patient-camera axis and the ash. Ideally, this angle is  degrees. Manipulation of this angle can have a profound impact on the appearance of nasal tip anatomy and tip­dening points. erefore it is critical to maintain consistent light positioning.

Ideal lighting consists of a pure light source that produces predictable results. When a pure light source is used, the color temperature of the light source is known and correction can be accomplished with lters and white balancing set­tings. It is essential to minimize the number of light sources and compensate for their cast with white balancing to obtain accurate and reproducible color.

DIGITAL PHOTOGRAPHY AND DIGITAL IMAGING SETUP
e quality, resolution, and convenience of digital photography have made it the standard in most rhinoplasty surgeons’ practices today. e ability to eliminate the cost of lm development and the physical storage space for prints and slides has been a major factor in the movement toward digital technology.
Space and Background
Although not always possible, having dedicated studio space improves eciency, consistency, and patient privacy. Ideally, this space should measure at least  by feet, and the walls should be a neutral color such as so white. External light from windows should be blocked. Most experts agree that a medium or light blue tone is ideal for the background, because these colors are nondistracting and gen­erally complement all skin tones. Furthermore, blue facilitates separation from the background for patients with dark hair and dark complexions.

Memory Card
Memory cards function as digital lm that can be reused thousands of times be­fore being replaced. Rapid advances in technology have made digital images easy to store, transfer, and copy with diminishing cost. ese images can be printed and used in the operating room as a reference for the operative plan and the de­sired aesthetic goals. Furthermore, images can be readily accessed for resident education, presentations, and consultation with colleagues. With proper imaging soware, postoperative simulations can be created to facilitate patient consulta­tion and dene the aesthetic goals.

Cameras
e digital point-and-shoot and the digital single-lens reex (DSLR) cameras are the two principal types of digital cameras on the market today. DSLR cameras use interchangeable lenses and can accommodate top-mounted ashes. Addi­tionally, with a DSLR camera, photographers can use manual controls and xed focal length lenses, which make the DSLR camera optimal for the production of standardized photographs.
,
Digital cameras are stratied by their quantity of megapixels. A higher number of megapixels translates into greater resolution, which is the amount of detail in an image. erefore more megapixels will lead to greater resolution and better image quality, and the size of the pixels contributes to the resolution. Although digital point-and-shoot cameras and DSLR cameras can have the same number of megapixels, the DSLR will generally have larger pixels. ese larger pixels gather more light, creating an image with greater tonal range and resolution.

Digital Imaging Soware
Most operating systems today come with soware for basic needs of storage, viewing, and editing images. However, several additional applications oer ad­vanced features for viewing, archiving, and retrieving images. In addition, spe­cialty soware is available that allows surgeons to morph images to simulate operative changes.
Organization is essential for storing digital images. For each patient, an individual le should be maintained. Several advanced programs are available that allow searchable key words to be attached to images, including diagnosis, procedure, demographics. Examples include Mirror by Caneld Scientic, Inc. (Faireld, NJ), Portfolio by Extensis (Portland, OR), Apple iPhoto (Cupertino, CA), and ACDSee (ACD Systems, Seattle, WA).

PHOTOGRAPHIC STANDARDS IN RHINOPLASTY
Standardized, high-quality photographs of the nose are imperative for preopera­tive planning, postoperative comparison, and demonstration of surgical results. is calls for standardized lighting, proper patient positioning and views, pre­vention of lens distortion, and consistent camera-to-subject distances.

Focus
To achieve reproducible, standardized photographs, the use of a set distance is recommended rather than autofocus. e camera’s position can be manually ad­justed to obtain a sharp focus. e reproduction ratio, which is the scale to which the photograph renders the subject, can also be used to obtain consistent results. Patients tend to vary in size; therefore using a standard subject-to-camera dis­tance will not provide consistent anatomic pictures. Anatomic framing can be used to overcome this problem and achieve consistency. is is done by framing the subject, using the hairline superiorly and the sternal notch or thyroid carti­lage prominence inferiorly. Some authors emphasize placing a ruler at the side of the face as an index of magnication to obtain life-size photographs for accurate denition of the aesthetic goals and surgical planning.

Focal Point
In determining the focal point, it is oen easiest to use denitive structures with sharp lines such as the eye. e use of a high aperture setting to create a large depth of eld with focus on the eye is recommended. e subject is then adjusted in the frame aer focusing is completed. If autofocus is employed, the center circle focal point is locked on the eye, and the subject can then be reframed in the viewnder.

Photographic Anatomy
e goals of photo documentation for rhinoplasty patients are to dene the exist­ing nasal anatomy, the aesthetic goals, and the operative plan. Photo documenta­tion must be thorough and include the following:
Nasal dorsum: Deviations, nasal bone height, width, and transition into the nasal tip
Nasal tip: Tip shape, tip-dening points, height of the infratip lobule, alar­columellar relationship, and nasal base width
Prole: Radix, dorsal height, dorsal irregularities, supratip break point, tip projection, nasal length, columellar-labial angle, columellar-lobular angle, alar-columellar relationship, and the position of the lateral crura
Nasal base: Nostril size and symmetry, nostril-lobule ratio, nasal width, columellar width, alar width, alar position, so tissue triangle, and scars from previous open rhinoplasties
Full face view: Relationship of the nose to other facial features
Standard Views for Rhinoplasty Photography
e six standard views necessary to critically evaluate nasal anatomy and the un­derlying nasal framework are the frontal, prole (le and right), oblique (le and right), and basal views. Although some variations in positioning are preferred for the oblique and basal views, it is important to maintain consistency when obtaining these images. For additional analysis, dynamic views can be obtained to assess the dynamics of the nasal tip and alar base during smiling, and the ce­phalic view to further highlight existing deviations.

e patient needs to look straight ahead with the head positioned in the natural horizontal facial plane. Gaze is directed at a xed object in the room that is lo­cated at eye level to maintain consistency. e position of the earlobes with re­spect to the base of the nose should be noted. is can help to determine head tilt or rotation when comparing photographs. Subtle changes in head rotation and tilt can mask asymmetries if they are not recognized.
,
Some authors advocate use of the Frankfort horizontal plane to standardize head position. However, in patients with low-set ears, this reference plane can cause the chin to appear weak and create the illusion of a more acute nasolabial angle. When using the Frankfort horizontal plane to determine head position, an ad­ditional point of reference can be obtained by placing an easily removable sticker or marker at the level of the infraorbital rim (red dot) to dene the true Frank­fort horizontal plane.

Frontal View
For the frontal view, the patient should look straight into the lens. e head is in the natural horizontal facial plane with the camera at eye level. e patient is anatomically framed using the top of the hairline as the superior border and the thyroid cartilage prominence as the inferior border. Reproduction ratios of : for full face views or : for close-ups are recom­mended.

e lateral view is obtained with the patient looking straight ahead and the head positioned in the natural horizontal facial plane.
Oblique View
e oblique view can aid in further characterizing asymmetries of the dorsum and supratip area. e patient is turned to line up the tip of the nose with the lateral cheek, or to line up the dorsum with the medial eye.

Basal View
e basal view can be obtained using the full basal view or the half basal view. e head is tilted back, and the head and chin make up the anatomic frame supe­riorly and inferiorly, respectively. In a full basal view, the tip is lined up between the eyebrows. In the half basal view, the nasal tip is lined up with the medial can­thi. ese views provide information on nasal base width and symmetry, nostril size, and tip width. Characteristics of the dorsum can also be highlighted in the half basal view.
Cephalic View
e cephalic or overhead view can highlight subtle external nasal deformities and reveal deviations that are not obvious on frontal view. In this view, the eyebrows are used to align the patient horizontally.
