SkiN DP is a tool to be used by patients and clinicians for recording photographs of skin lesions on clinical visits. Patients can enter the link code generated when they enrolled on the study to connect their photographs to their profile. Clinicians can add photograph descriptions and diagnosis information as well as feedback on their experience of using the app so we can improve the tool as the project expands.
