The development and use of artificial intelligence (AI) in dermatology: a narrative review

Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) is defined as a computer science involving program development aiming to reproduce human cognition to analyze complex data. Artificial intelligence has rapidly developed in the medical field. In dermatology, its development is relatively new and is generally used in the diagnostic, especially for skin imaging analysis and classification, and also for risk assessment. The greatest advances have been primarily in the diagnosis of melanoma, followed by the assessment of psoriasis, ulcers, and various other skin diseases. The use of AI has shown good accuracy and is comparable to dermatologists in various studies, especially related to melanoma and skin tumors. However, several obstacles exist in the application of AI to daily clinical practice, including generalizability, image standardization, the need for large data quantities, and legal and privacy aspects. In current developments, AI should be aimed at helping enhance the decision-making of clinicians.
