Abstract

A pilot study of telemedicine consultations of 51 dermatology patients showed that the technology worked well, with the diagnosis being able to be made in most patients and over half of the patients being able to be dealt with through this medium only. It could therefore have a valuable screening role. However, many of the patients, in spite of the obvious advantage of an immediate consultant opinion, felt it would be more appropriately used as a review technique.

摘要

一项针对51名皮肤科患者的远程医疗咨询试点研究表明，该技术运行良好，大多数患者能够得到诊断，超过半数的患者仅通过这种方式就能得到治疗。因此，它可能具有重要的筛查作用。然而，尽管能立即获得专家意见有明显优势，但许多患者认为将其更适当地用作一种复诊技术。
