Introduction

The patient image module allows adding an image of the patient in the patient dashboard. The module adds a tab to the patient dashboard to manage the patient image.

By default, if no image is available, the module will display a silhouette as the patient image and clicking on the Patient Image tab will allow managing this image. The image can either be captured through a webcam or an image can be uploaded. The portrait of the patient is saved in the OpenMRS Application Data directory under the patient_images folder. A person attribute (Patient Image) is used to associate the filename with the image. Currently the filename is the preferred identifier of the patient, but in later version will be customizable through a global property.

As of version 0.5, Flash player 11.1.0 or higher is required (for image capture) when running on localhost to comply with the new security sandbox implementation

KNOWN ISSUES:

** Patient images are overridden and previous versions of images are not stored. **
