Interventions

OTHER

taking macroscopic and dermoscopic pictures of suspicious skin lesions

If there is any diagnostic doubt about a skin lesion, teledermoscopy will be used, if the patient agrees. * A table containing the useful information about the patient for the lesion's analysis will be completed. * The pictures will be taken with a Fotofinder Handyscope. The photos will be integrated into the patient's electronic medical record (CareConnect program). * The photo is anonymized via a serial number assigned by the "Handyscope" application. * Sending photos and information via a secure email address to the dermatologists. * Response from the dermatologist (Prof. Tromme or Dr Harkemanne) in the following days also via email. * Contact (consultation or telephone call depending on the diagnosis) with the patient to communicate the results and the procedure to be followed. * This information (emails containing the dermatological report) will be saved in the patient's computerized medical file (CareConnect program) then deleted from the mailbox
