TIL: there is a quality below SD.

How is a doctor supposed to do a video consultation if the blotches on your bum, purely for example, are all blurry because the definition is less than HD?
Perhaps the system could allow users to send high resolution still photographs alongside the low-quality video stream.
You get most of the consultation with history, described symptoms, etc. handled over telehealth and a quick follow-up in person if you require a physical examination. The process has to cover people who call from a landline as well.
