ABSTRACT

The use of third party applications such as Figure 1 was found to be utilized predominately by non-dermatologist medical personnel for collaboration in medical decision making of dermatologic conditions with other providers. This discovery calls to attention the need for more readily resources for non-dermatologist health care providers when faced with skin related conditions, added benefit of trained dermatologists as adversaries to such medical application platforms, and recognition for when additional consultation or referral to trained dermatologists for more complex cases is deemed appropriate.
