Mobile health apps for skin cancer triage in the general population: a qualitative study on healthcare providers' perspectives.

Journal: BMC cancer
PMID: 40346534

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Mobile health (mHealth) applications (apps) integrated with artificial intelligence for skin cancer triage are increasingly available to the general public. Nevertheless, their actual uptake is limited. Although endorsement by healthcare providers (HCPs) is one of the perceived facilitators for using this technology, the perceptions of key HCPs in skin cancer triage towards those apps have not been studied.
