Summary:

«Chelsea and Westminster Hospital NHS Foundation Trust is rolling out a pilot involving an AI decision support tool which aims to change the way skin cancer is assessed and treated by the NHS.«

«DERM uses AI algorithms to analyse specialist magnified images of skin lesions so that patients can be assessed quickly and receive life-saving treatment promptly if required. In secondary care, DERM is used in addition to teledermatology hubs where images of skin lesions are captured to triage cases and find the most appropriate treatment pathway for each patient.»
