Abstract

As medicine enters the era of artificial intelligence (AI)-augmented practice, dermatology is beginning to witness the integration of AI into the daily practice, particularly in the areas of diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of skin diseases. Many of the current electronic medical records that dermatologists have incorporated provide guidance in billing, a form of AI at work. The recent advances in visual recognition AI make application and integration of the technology particularly suited for perceptual specialties such as radiology and dermatology. In dermatology, AI is poised to improve the efficiency and accuracy of traditional diagnostic approaches, including visual examination, skin biopsy, and histopathologic examination. This review highlights the current progress of AI in dermatology and provides a basic overview of the technology.
