Guided self-capture of diagnostic images

A method comprising, by a mobile computing device:

• displaying a graphical user interface (GUI) on a screen of the mobile computing device, wherein the GUI presents instructions to capture images of a specific area of the user's body posed in a predefined position, wherein the instructions comprise a graphical representation of the specific area of the user's body as posed in the predefined position;
• upon detecting that a camera associated with the mobile computing device is enabled, displaying, in the GUI, a view appearing in a lens of the camera, wherein the graphical representation is displayed in conjunction with the view;
• capturing one or more images of the view, wherein the captured images are stored on the mobile computing device;
• displaying, in the GUI, the one or more stored images together with instructions to review the stored images;
• and
• in response to receiving user input approving one or more of the stored images, transmitting the approved one or more images over a network connection to a system associated with an image analyst.

A system comprising one or more processors and a memory coupled to the processors comprising code executable by the processors, the processors being operable when executing the code to:

• display a graphical user interface (GUI) on a screen of the mobile computing device, wherein the GUI presents instructions to capture images of a specific area of the user's body posed in a predefined position, wherein the instructions comprise a graphical representation of the specific area of the user's body as posed in the predefined position;
• upon detecting that a camera associated with the mobile computing device is enabled, display, in the GUI, a view appearing in a lens of the camera, wherein the graphical representation is displayed in conjunction with the view;
• capture one or more images of the view, wherein the captured images are stored on the mobile computing device;
• display, in the GUI, the one or more stored images together with instructions to review the stored images;
• and
• in response to receiving user input approving one or more of the stored images, transmit the approved one or more images over a network connection to a system associated with an image analyst.
