The new navigation buttons enable the forward and backward navigation of total body photography images for easy image comparison. 

Total-Body Photography Workflow

When imaging a returning patient for a Follow-Up visit, you can easily compare images from previous sessions. The system automatically retrieves the most recent image for the selected body part, ensuring efficiency and accuracy. TBP algorithms preprocess images in the background, enabling smooth Forward navigation and seamless comparisons with a single click, saving you time and improving workflow. Let's take a look at the recent improvements:

1. Compare button

Streamline image retrieval by automatically selecting the most recent image (at least 3 months older) for a body part, saving the provider up to 3 clicks.

2. Bulk Operations

New bulk operations in Comparison and Flicker modes simplify lesion management. Select one or multiple imaged lesions to:

1. Map: Add lesions to the patient’s 3D body map.
2. Image: Instantly capture dermoscopic images using a connected mobile device.
3. Delete: Remove single or multiple lesions at once for faster cleanup.
   
   
   

3. Navigation buttons 

Easily compare body parts with the new navigation buttons. Use the arrows in the top-right corner to move forward or backward through your TBP template. The system saves selected visit dates and automatically retrieves the next body part’s image, saving up to 8 seconds in preview. Available in Comparison and Flicker modes.

4. Mode Retention

The enhancements ensure your selected mode is saved when moving between body parts. Whether you’re in Single-Image View, Comparison View, or Flicker, the system retains your mode with visit dates starting points for seamless and consistent image review.
