Background: Patients with skin lesions suspicious for skin cancer or atypical melanocytic nevi of uncertain malignant potential often present to dermatologists, who may have variable dermoscopy triage clinical experience.

Objective: To evaluate the clinical utility of a digital dermoscopy image-based artificial intelligence algorithm (DDI-AI device) on the diagnosis and management of skin cancers by dermatologists.

Methods: Thirty-six United States board-certified dermatologists evaluated 50 clinical images and 50 digital dermoscopy images of the same skin lesions (25 malignant and 25 benign), first without and then with knowledge of the DDI-AI device output.

Article Synopsis
  • The human lens is a biconvex optical element formed by layers of growth shells made up of specialized lens fibers, which play a crucial role in vision.
  • These fibers are organized in a sinusoidal pattern that enhances the lens's transparency and supports microcirculation for hydration and nutrition.
  • The composition and interconnectedness of fiber cells contribute to the lens's efficiency and longevity, impacting its ability to properly refract light and maintain image clarity over time.

Introduction: Teledermatology, defined as the use of remote imaging technologies to provide dermatologic healthcare services to individuals in a distant setting, has grown considerably in popularity since its widespread implementation during the COVID-19 pandemic. Teledermoscopy employs a smartphone dermatoscope attachment paired with a smartphone camera to visualize colors and microstructures within the epidermis and superficial dermis that cannot be seen with the naked eye ABCD criteria alone.

Methods: Our retrospective observational cohort and case-control study evaluated the utility of loaning a smartphone dermatoscope attachment to patients for remote triage of self-selected lesions of concern for skin cancer.
