摘要
The Department of Defense (DoD) healthcare system supports the medical needs of sen ice members while engaged in a variety of missions frequently in isolated, remote, and austere locations. As a result, the DoD has been a leader in the development of telemedicine, including teledermatology as a way to provide "good medicine in bad places." A brief technical history of teledermatology, representative DoD experiences including military unique concerns, and a novel approach to increase the access of DoD teledermatology consultation are presented in this article.
