DermView’s teledermatology enables the patient to get a rapid, accurate diagnosis from a leading dermatology consultant in Ireland from their local hospital or clinic. In teledermoscopy, a specialist can receive digital dermoscopic lesion images through electronic transmission in order to examine them. DermView is a telediagnostic platform that enables specialists to do this kind of work. Dermoscopy refers to the technical field of utilizing an epiluminescence microscope to view skin lesions in magnification in-vivo. It is especially useful in quickly detecting malignant skin lesions or melanoma. The images and medical notes are assessed remotely by Consultant Dermatologists, without having to see the patient in person or via video link. Digital dermoscopic images use specialist cameras designed for dermoscopy. As dermoscopy involves the examination of two-dimensional images, it perfectly suits digital imaging and teledermatology.
