Dermatology Education Resources

Welcome to dermatology education at Skinsight.com, developed by Logical Images. 

Here at Skinsight we are committed to furthering dermatology education around the world. Skinsight is powered by VisualDx – a clinical system from Logical Images that is designed to improve diagnostic accuracy and patient education, thus improving the quality of medical care.

In addition to VisualDx and Skinsight, Logical Images has also developed several tools for residents and students of dermatology who are interested in learning more about the study of skin at any point during their careers.

Rash Fundamentals

Most people use the word rash to mean an eruption of skin lesions that covers areas of skin. In contrast, a single small lesion, like a pimple, mole, tumor, or growth, is not usually called a rash.

The art and science of figuring out the cause of a rash involve determining its time course and features and specifically describing the type, shape, arrangement, distribution, size, color, and other features of the skin lesions using standard medical vocabulary.
 
The experts at Logical Images have put together an online self-paced course to introduce the key dermatologic concepts.

LearnDerm

We first launched an interactive online morphology tutorial in 2003, enhanced it in 2008 as LearnDerm and now we are expanding it to be a comprehensive, self-paced tutorial for students. 

LearnDerm includes complete training in the essential descriptive terminology of dermatology and a lesson on variations in dermatologic diagnosis.
