Artificial Intelligence in Dermatology for the Clinician

ABSTRACT As medicine has entered the era of artificial intelligence (AI)-augmented practice, dermatology is also beginning to witness the integration of AI in 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 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. Artificial intelligence is poised to augment the traditional diagnostic approach to dermatologic disease includes visual examination, skin biopsy, and histopathologic examination, improving efficiency and accuracy. In this review, current progress of AI as it is related to dermatology along with basic overview of the technology is highlighted.
