Abstract

Skin diseases are among the most prevalent issues in contemporary times that must be examined. The diagnostic process is still based on the opinions and expertise of medical professionals. A wrong diagnosis, diagnostic lag, or an inability to diagnose can have serious or fatal outcomes. The Internet of Things implies connectivity, heterogeneity, and a huge number of devices joining daily as technology advances and puts away insightful gadgets’ floods massively. This has led to a need for context-aware platforms anywhere and everywhere. Nonetheless, this divergence of knowledge needs to be integrated and unified to prepare the ground for achieving the goals above and firmly establishing the IoT paradigm. This chapter highlighted the employment of IoT devices for remote monitoring of skin conditions using wearable devices, smart sensors, and mobile applications. It also highlights IoT Technologies (such as AI and machine learning, cloud computing, big data analytics, and telemedicine platforms) for remote monitoring of dermatology. It concluded by discussing the application of IoT in remote dermatology.
