Currently, the vast majority of worldwide guidelines for skin cancer recommend dermoscopy as a critical component of diagnosing and following up with patients facing an increased risk of this disease [15-20]. Dermoscopy is also increasingly accepted as a standard practice worldwide. Multiple studies have revealed that US dermatologists use dermoscopy. Indeed, 1555 out of 3238 (48%) American dermatologists surveyed in 2010 said they used dermoscopy [21].

Dermoscopy is a noninvasive, in vivo microscopic technique used to examine skin lesions by detecting morphological features that may not be seen by the naked eye [1-4]. Studies have demonstrated that dermoscopy improves the diagnosis of both pigmented skin lesions [3,5-7] and nonpigmented skin lesions [8], including neoplasms [9] and infectious and inflammatory skin diseases [4,10].

Dermoscopy relies on a handheld microscope and incident light to reveal images of the lower skin layers at magnifications of 10 to 100 times. It is said to increase the sensitivity of melanoma diagnosis by 60% to 90% [3].

Among the included studies, there were a total of 8805 visually inspected lesions and 6855 lesions inspected with dermoscopy and VI. Face-to-face and teledermatology settings were evaluated separately, although no clear difference was found between settings.

Direct-to-Patient Mobile Teledermoscopy: Prospective Observational Study
Dermoscopy is not universally used. This prospective observational study evaluates a direct-to-patient mobile teledermoscopy program at the San Francisco Veterans Affairs Medical Center (SFVAMC) on its effectiveness in diagnosing and managing patient-identified lesions of concern.
Adults scheduled for full-body skin exams between May and August 2022 were recruited (Figure 1) and given a Sklip mobile dermatoscope, valued at US $99.99.

If properly trained, inspection of skin lesions using dermoscopy is associated with a higher detection rate of melanoma [15-17], a reduction in needed referrals and excisions [18-20], better management of pigmented skin lesions [21,22], and this provides an increase in melanoma sensitivity without a decrease in specificity [23] that is cost-effective [24]. Furthermore, comparing lesions over time using digital dermoscopy offers earlier detection [25].

Of the 66 GPs, only 30 (45%) received training or instructions about taking (dermoscopic) photographs from the telemedicine organization, 7 (11%) took an (additional) imaging course (eg, dermoscopy and medical imaging), and 13 (20%) gained experience in taking (dermoscopic) images in daily practice. Of the 66 GPs, 25 (38%) GPs did not receive any training or instruction, and 15 (60%) of them did not judge this training or instruction as necessary.

Teledermatology for Enhancing Skin Cancer Diagnosis and Management: Retrospective Chart Review
At the VLC, nurses record a targeted history and take dermoscopy images of skin lesions, which are important for lesion referrals to dermatology [6,8-10]. This high-quality diagnostic service allows for faster management of skin cancers, but its disadvantages include long waiting times for imaging, requiring patient travel to an imaging centre, and the lack of integration with GP and hospital electronic medical records.

Store-and-Forward Teledermatology for Assessing Skin Cancer in 2023: Literature Review
Most research suggests adding dermoscopy images for teledermatology is more effective than clinical images alone. Reviews by Beer et al [37] and Woodley [38] concluded that teledermoscopy increases lesion diagnosis accuracy. Gómez Arias et al [39] compared diagnostic concordance with and without teledermoscopy in 395 cases and showed increased concordance when dermoscopy was included.
