Smart Teledermatology Platform with AI Enabled Disease Predicting System

Telehealth is the distribution of health-related services via electronic information and telecommunication technologies. It allows long distance patient and clinician to interact. Telehealth system proposed in this project can be effectively used in diagnosing skin related disease as it is visible through camera. Visual Similarities observed in case of skin diseases such as nevus, seborrheic keratosis and melanoma are difficult to identify. If the people in rural areas are not treated properly then it may lead to cancerous diseases. So, what if a person can get his/her skin related problem diagnosed by visiting the nearby clinic/hospital. To address this problem a teledermatology system is built for proper communication between a primary care clinician in a remote location and a super specialty hospital physician in city for a second opinion. The physician can check the patient’s skin disease and identify the disease. This overcomes the distance barriers and improves the health care facility and medical services that would be often not be consistently available in distant rural communities. Also, there is an Artificial Intelligence tool, built to predict the kind of diseases from the live feed of the patient.
