Abstract
There is a rapidly growing interest in electronic atlases including images with medical reports and quantitative description of pathological regions of interest. The e-atlases are mostly used by students and residents for teaching and training. However, an atlas my also be employed in everyday clinical practice. An imaging system that integrates an e-atlas of photodynamic studies with computer assisted diagnostic and therapeutic procedures is presented. Image processing results are stored in the database and may also be applied in the teaching and training process. The e-atlas includes photodynamic studies with clinical reports, location of the biopsy enter, selected points of the highest autofluorescence intensity to be subjected to the therapeutic light exposure.
