Abstract: There has been a great deal of misunderstanding as to what lighting could or could not be used in surgery, but many of the restrictions of the past are no longer necessary. The issue has been further confused by the ideas and techniques of individual photographers which sometimes has little if any real relationship to the problem at hand. Surgical photography, like all other photography, requires compromise with realistic application and choice of equipment. The requirements for general surgical lighting are reviewed, with the hope of stimulating manufacturers to design equipment specifically for the purposes of this growing field.
