First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is testing whether a telemedicine tool can help primary care doctors find skin cancer earlier. About 1,440 people with suspicious moles or lesions will have their skin checked remotely. The goal is to see if this approach can spot malignancies that might otherwise be missed, potentially leading to faster treatment.
