Patient satisfaction with a new skin cancer teledermatology service

摘要

Background Rising numbers of two-week-wait (2WW) skin cancer referrals have caused increasing pressure on UK dermatology departments. Initiatives to address this include teledermatology. Previous studies have indicated good patient acceptability but most have focused on general dermatology rather than skin cancer referrals, and have taken place in rural settings, where teledermatology may be preferable.
