Background: Use of smartphones for clinical photography is increasingly being integrated into surgical practice. Although it can aid in clinical communication, it exposes patients to potential privacy violations. Patient data protection in Ireland is governed by General Protection Data Regulation (GDPR), although the regulations surrounding smartphone usage remain unclear to many clinicians. Our aim is to review this, highlight concerns, and provide guidance to safeguard urologists and their patients.
