Background: Accurate diagnosis and management of pigmented lesions is critical because of the morbidity and mortality associated with melanoma.
Objective: We sought to compare accuracy of store-and-forward teledermatology for pigmented neoplasms with standard, in-person clinic dermatology.
Methods: We conducted a repeated measures equivalence trial involving veterans with pigmented skin neoplasms.
Background: Studies of teledermatology utilizing the standard reference of histopathology are lacking.
Objective: To compare accuracy of store-and-forward teledermatology for non-pigmented neoplasms with in-person dermatology.
Methods: This study was a repeated-measures equivalence trial involving veterans with non-pigmented skin neoplasms.
Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of duct tape occlusion therapy for the treatment of common warts in adults.
Design: Double-blind controlled clinical intervention trial.
Setting: Veterans Affairs medical center.
Background: Presenting signs/symptoms of skin cancer may aid in earlier detection and diagnosis.
Objective: We sought to compare prospectively collected, presenting signs/symptoms of malignant melanoma (MM), basal cell carcinoma (BCC), squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), and seborrheic keratosis (SK).
Methods: This analysis was part of a larger study on teledermatology involving 3039 skin neoplasms in 2152 patients at a Department of Veterans Affairs medical center.
Background: Seborrheic dermatitis is commonly treated with anti-inflammatory products, including topical corticosteroids. Pimecrolimus cream 1% also exerts anti-inflammatory activity by inhibiting T-cell cytokine production.
Objective: We sought to compare the efficacy and safety of twice-daily pimecrolimus for treatment of moderate to severe facial seborrheic dermatitis.
