Abstract

We demonstrate that PASI scores can be determined with moderate to good accuracy by dermatologists using standardized digital images. Our results imply the implementation of a tele-PASI service may be a practical and effective adjunct to the dermatological care of patients with severe psoriasis where incapacity or distance prevent the realisation of face-to-face consultations.
