Confocal Fluorescence Microscopy

Confocal Fluorescence Microscopy

Confocal microscopy is an advanced microscopic technique. The prime advantage of the confocal microscope over other microscopy techniques is its ability to block the out-of-focus light from the illuminated samples using pinholes. It is widely used with fluorescence optics to obtain high-resolution, sharp contrast images. Unlike optical microscopes, confocal microscopes use a focused beam of light laser to scan the entire sample surface at different z-planes. These microscopes are, therefore,...

Area of Science:

Dermatology
Medical Informatics
Public Health

Background:

Consensus guidelines are crucial for quality and safety in medical practice.
The rapid implementation of telemedicine and growth in teledermatology evidence raise questions about current guidance robustness.

Purpose of the Study:

To assess the extent and nature of available consensus guidelines and recommendations for telemedicine in dermatology.
To understand the evolution of teledermatology guidance over the past decade.

Main Methods:

A single-reviewer scoping review of teledermatology guidance published in English since 2013.
Literature search conducted in November-December 2022.

Main Results:

15 publications met inclusion criteria from 839 initial records.
Most frequent focus was general dermatology (53%); nearly half were COVID-19 pandemic-specific.
Publications predominantly from 2020 onwards, with international origins (Australia, US, Europe, India).

Conclusions:

An increase in COVID-19-specific teledermatology guidance was observed in 2020.
Key sources include University of Queensland, Australasian College of Dermatologists, and American Telemedicine Association.
A need exists for updated guidance incorporating COVID-19 lessons, innovations, and emerging technologies.
