DermAssure is a data collection application designed to assist licensed clinicians to accurately capture information related to skin conditions. Dermatologists initiate patient encounters by obtaining informed consent and signatures, with the option to input basic patient details and information about the skin condition. Images of the affected area are then uploaded and securely stored, where the data becomes accessible through our web platform for the licensed clinician to conduct further analysis.
