Clinical course outcomes for store and forward teledermatology versus conventional consultation: a randomized trial.

We assessed the clinical course of patients after store and forward teledermatology in comparison with conventional consultations. Patients being referred from primary care to dermatology clinics were randomly assigned to teledermatology or a conventional consultation. A total of 392 patients were randomized; 261 patients completed the study and were included in the analysis.

Effect of store and forward teledermatology on quality of life: a randomized controlled trial.

Importance: Although research on quality of life and dermatologic conditions is well represented in the literature, information on teledermatology's effect on quality of life is virtually absent.

Objective: To determine the effect of store and forward teledermatology on quality of life.

Design: Two-site, parallel-group, superiority randomized controlled trial.

Dermatoscopy use by US dermatologists: a cross-sectional survey.

Background: Although dermatoscopy is widely used in Europe and Australia, little is known about dermatoscopy use by US dermatologists.

Objective: We sought to estimate the prevalence of dermatoscopy use by US dermatologists and examine associations with practice characteristics.

Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional survey of all US fellows of the American Academy of Dermatology.
