Core Tip

Core tip: Mobile teledermatology is emerging as a feasible and cost-effective method for teledermatology practice. Mobile teledermatology is useful in diagnosis, screening and triage of skin lesions including skin cancers. It is also useful as a tool to follow up patients with chronic dermatological problems. However more studies are required for standardization of mobile teledermatology protocols.
