Tele Dermatology

Tele dermatology is a subspecialty in the medical field of dermatology and probably one of the most common applications of telemedicine and e-health. In tele dermatology, telecommunication technologies are used to exchange medical information over a distance using audio, visual and data communication. Applications comprise health care management such as diagnoses, consultation and treatment as well as education. The dermatologists Perednia and Brown were the first to coin the term “tele dermatology” in 1995. In a scientific publication, they described the value of a tele dermatologic service in a rural area underserved by dermatologists. The SAF method is most commonly used in tele dermatology. It involves sending digital images associated with 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.
