In a scientific publication, they described the value of a teledermatologic service in a rural area underserved by dermatologists.Perednia, Brown 1995 Bull Med Libr Assoc https://store.theartofservice.com/the-teledermatology-toolkit.html Teledermatology - Modes of data transmission 1 The SAF method is most commonly used in teledermatology: It involves sending (forwarding) digital images associated with (anonymous) medical information to the data storage unit of a consulted specialist. It can be as easy as sending an email with a digital image of a lesion to seek advice for a skin condition. Advantages of this method are that it does not demand the presence of both parties at the same time and does not usually require expensive equipment. https://store.theartofservice.com/the-teledermatology-toolkit.html Teledermatology - Modes of data transmission In real-time/ live interactive teledermatology applications, provider and individuals usually interact via live videoconferencing. It may also involve remote surgery and the use of telerobotic microscopes in dermatopathology. This mode generally requires more sophisticated and costly technology than used in the SAF mode. Both participants must be available at the same time. 1 https://store.theartofservice.com/the-teledermatology-toolkit.html Teledermatology - Teledermoscopy Since dermoscopy is based on examination of a two-dimensional image it is very well suited for digital imaging and teledermatology. 1 https://store.theartofservice.com/the-teledermatology-toolkit.html Teledermatology - Mobile Teledermatology 1 In order to facilitate access to medical advice and enable individuals to play a more active role in managing their own health status, mobile teledermatology seems to be especially suited for patient filtering or triage https://store.theartofservice.com/the-teledermatology-toolkit.html Teledermatology - Suitability of cases for Teledermatology Unlike in western studies where pigmented lesions suspicious of melanomas are one of the most referred cases for teledermatology (with or without teledermatoscopy), Asian studies have fewer cases referred based on the suspicion of melanoma.Kaliyadan et al 1 https://store.theartofservice.com/the-teledermatology-toolkit.html Teledermatology - United Kingdom Available at: www.networks.nhs.uk/news/teledermatolo gy- diagnosis-triage-and-effective-care-ofdermatology By 2013, Rego was adopted in over 5% of GP practices in the UK. 1 https://store.theartofservice.com/the-teledermatology-toolkit.html Dermatologist - Teledermatology Brown, M.L.S., OregonHealthSciencesUniversity [http://www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov/picrend er.fcgi?artid=225996blobtype=pdf Teledermatology: one application of telemedicine] 1 https://store.theartofservice.com/the-teledermatology-toolkit.html Dermatologist - Teledermatology Peter Soyer, Rainer Hofmann-Wellenhof, Cesare Massone, Gerald Gabler, Huiting Dong, Fezal Ozdemir, Giuseppe Argenziano [http://www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov/picrender.f cgi?artid=1087218blobtype=pdf telederm.org: Freely Available Online Consultations in Dermatology] Teledermatology can reduce wait times by allowing dermatologists to treat minor conditions online while serious conditions requiring immediate care are given priority for appointments. 1 https://store.theartofservice.com/the-teledermatology-toolkit.html For More Information, Visit: • https://store.theartofservice.co m/the-teledermatologytoolkit.html The Art of Service https://store.theartofservice.com
