Summary

Current AI in dermatology analyzes single images, lacking patient history. Future AI needs longitudinal data and treatment awareness for chronic skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis.

Skin Cancer

Skin cancer is a type of cancer that occurs when there is an abnormal growth of skin cells, usually triggered by damage to the DNA within the skin cells. It is primarily caused by exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun or artificial sources like tanning beds. Skin cancer is the most common type of cancer worldwide, and its incidence continues to rise.
Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC): BCC is the most common type of skin cancer, accounting for about 80% of cases. It typically develops in...

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Artificial Intelligence
  • Medical Informatics

Background:

  • Dermatological AI has evolved from basic image classifiers to complex multimodal foundation models.
  • Existing AI systems achieve high diagnostic accuracy but lack longitudinal patient data and treatment history integration.
  • Chronic inflammatory skin diseases (e.g., eczema, acne, psoriasis, rosacea) require continuous monitoring and personalized treatment strategies.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the evidence for longitudinal, treatment-aware, and multimodal large language model (LLM) approaches in dermatology.
  • To identify current trends and research gaps in AI for chronic inflammatory skin conditions.
  • To explore the potential of advanced AI in providing comprehensive dermatological care.

  • Systematic literature review across five major scientific databases (PubMed, ACM, IEEE Xplore, Web of Science, Scopus).
  • Search conducted for studies published between 2020 and 2026.
  • Selection of 30 studies from 1,644 citations adhering to PRISMA-ScR guidelines.
  • Main Results:

    • Identified five key themes: shift to longitudinal AI, multimodal vision-language integration, treatment-aware decision support, temporal reasoning, and evaluation methods.
    • No current models integrate longitudinal imaging, medication logs, and LLM reasoning for chronic inflammatory skin diseases.
    • Significant research gaps exist in developing comprehensive AI solutions for dynamic dermatological conditions.

    Conclusions:

    • The field is moving towards longitudinal and multimodal AI, but integration with treatment data and LLM reasoning is nascent.
    • There is a critical need for longitudinal, treatment-annotated benchmarks to advance AI in chronic inflammatory dermatology.
    • Future research should focus on developing AI systems that incorporate temporal patient data and treatment responses for improved dermatological care.
