Teledermatology Market size and Key Trends in terms of volume and value 2016-2026

Dermatology is the field of medicine concerned with the skin, hair, nails and their diseases. It is a speciality dealing with both the medical & surgical aspects. With the rapid progression of telecommunication technology in the late 20th and early 21st century, there was a convergence of the two in the form of the teledermatology market. The term ‘teledermatology’ was coined by dermatologists Perednia and Brown in 1995. It is a subset within dermatology where telecommunication equipment is used to transmit medical data through audio, video and data means. It typically consists of dermatology photos. The main objectives of the teledermatology market are long-distance knowledge exchange for doctors & researchers, getting a second opinion and even being able to serve patients suffering from chronic skin conditions in far-flung regions of the globe. Teledermatology can also save valuable time by enabling dermatologists to treat minor ailments online while leaving only serious medical conditions to be dealt with in person. There are two main concepts in teledermatology – Store and Forward (SAF) and real time teledermatology. The former is more commonly used whereas the latter is still a niche part of the teledermatology market at present.

<strong>Teledermatology</strong> <strong>Market</strong><br />

<strong>Teledermatology</strong> <strong>Market</strong> Overview<br />

Dermatology is the field <strong>of</strong> medic<strong>in</strong>e concerned with the sk<strong>in</strong>, hair, nails <strong>and</strong> their diseases. It is a speciality<br />

deal<strong>in</strong>g with both the medical & surgical aspects. With the rapid progression <strong>of</strong> telecommunication<br />

technology <strong>in</strong> the late 20 th <strong>and</strong> early 21 st century, there was a convergence <strong>of</strong> the two <strong>in</strong> the form <strong>of</strong> the<br />

teledermatology market. The term ‘teledermatology’ was co<strong>in</strong>ed by dermatologists Perednia <strong>and</strong> Brown <strong>in</strong><br />

1995. It is a subset with<strong>in</strong> dermatology where telecommunication equipment is used to transmit medical<br />

data through audio, video <strong>and</strong> data means. It typically consists <strong>of</strong> dermatology photos. The ma<strong>in</strong> objectives<br />

<strong>of</strong> the teledermatology market are long-distance knowledge exchange for doctors & researchers, gett<strong>in</strong>g a<br />

second op<strong>in</strong>ion <strong>and</strong> even be<strong>in</strong>g able to serve patients suffer<strong>in</strong>g from chronic sk<strong>in</strong> conditions <strong>in</strong> far-flung<br />

regions <strong>of</strong> the globe. <strong>Teledermatology</strong> can also save valuable time by enabl<strong>in</strong>g dermatologists to treat m<strong>in</strong>or<br />

ailments onl<strong>in</strong>e while leav<strong>in</strong>g only serious medical conditions to be dealt with <strong>in</strong> person. There are two ma<strong>in</strong><br />

concepts <strong>in</strong> teledermatology – Store <strong>and</strong> Forward (SAF) <strong>and</strong> real time teledermatology. The former is more<br />

commonly used whereas the latter is still a niche part <strong>of</strong> the teledermatology market at present.<br />

<strong>Teledermatology</strong> <strong>Market</strong> Drivers<br />

There are several factors responsible for the growth <strong>of</strong> the teledermatology market; a critical one be<strong>in</strong>g<br />

medical education. Several medical universities & colleges have begun to <strong>of</strong>fer onl<strong>in</strong>e courses, web<br />

applications or computer-based-tra<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g modules specifically for their students. There are also specialist<br />

courses which can be taken directly on the Internet, particularly <strong>in</strong> a field like dermatoscopy.<br />

<strong>Teledermatology</strong> can also be very useful for mak<strong>in</strong>g medical <strong>in</strong>formation more easily available. For e.g. - A<br />

person afflicted by a certa<strong>in</strong> sk<strong>in</strong> condition could access <strong>in</strong>formation onl<strong>in</strong>e, as could their relatives.<br />

<strong>Teledermatology</strong> <strong>Market</strong><br />

They might also be able to jo<strong>in</strong> peer support groups with other people fac<strong>in</strong>g the same medical condition.<br />

Another driver for the teledermatology market is improv<strong>in</strong>g telecommunication <strong>in</strong>frastructure <strong>in</strong> emerg<strong>in</strong>g<br />

markets. The major <strong>in</strong>vestments be<strong>in</strong>g planned <strong>in</strong> 4G LTE networks <strong>in</strong> these countries will also help the<br />

dermatology market <strong>in</strong> no small part. This will enable a doctor sitt<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> the U.S or even <strong>in</strong> an urban part <strong>of</strong><br />

the same country to treat patients <strong>in</strong> rural areas remotely. If the problem is a m<strong>in</strong>or one, they might not<br />

have to schedule an appo<strong>in</strong>tment, sav<strong>in</strong>g both their time as well as that <strong>of</strong> the dermatologist. One more key<br />

driver for the teledermatology market is the desire <strong>of</strong> <strong>in</strong>surance companies to cut cost. With the<br />

<strong>in</strong>troduction <strong>of</strong> newer, more expensive medical therapies, teledermatology is one <strong>of</strong> the best ways to get<br />

effective, rapid & affordable treatment.<br />

<strong>Teledermatology</strong> <strong>Market</strong> Restra<strong>in</strong>ts<br />

One <strong>of</strong> the biggest drivers <strong>of</strong> the growth <strong>of</strong> the teledermatology market can also be a major restra<strong>in</strong>t to its<br />

growth. While develop<strong>in</strong>g countries have committed <strong>in</strong>vest<strong>in</strong>g billions <strong>of</strong> dollars <strong>in</strong> improv<strong>in</strong>g their mobile<br />

<strong>and</strong> wired broadb<strong>and</strong> <strong>in</strong>frastructure, the reality on the ground is quite different. Mobile networks can be<br />

patchy, slow <strong>and</strong> unreliable even <strong>in</strong> cities, mak<strong>in</strong>g it very difficult for dermatologists to get data heavy, large<br />

images from their patients <strong>in</strong> rural, far-flung areas. Another challenge is the resistance to change from both<br />

dermatologists <strong>and</strong> the patients. Dermatologists might not trust technology <strong>and</strong> prefer to diagnose diseases<br />

<strong>in</strong> an old-fashioned way, while their patients might also be hesitant to utilise teledermatology due to a sheer<br />

lack <strong>of</strong> awareness. This is more likely <strong>in</strong> villages with low education levels which would ironically benefit from<br />

the teledermatology market the most.<br />

<strong>Teledermatology</strong> <strong>Market</strong><br />

There is also a challenge <strong>of</strong> complex regulations which govern both technology & medic<strong>in</strong>e across various<br />

countries. There can even be different laws <strong>in</strong> different states with<strong>in</strong> the same country sometimes. (Like the<br />

U.S.). The long-term prospects <strong>of</strong> the teledermatology market are very bright, these challenges<br />

notwithst<strong>and</strong><strong>in</strong>g.<br />
