Asynchronous 3D Photography Is a Reliable Tool for the Assessment of Mycosis Fungoides Clinical Severity.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Mycosis fungoides (MF) requires accurate clinical assessment for staging and management. Teledermatology aids remote evaluations, but there is limited data on the use of 3D total body photography (TBP) in assessing MF.

Objective

This study evaluates the accuracy and reliability of assessing a patient with MF using 3D TBP compared to in-person review.

Methods

Thirteen MF patients were evaluated in-person using the modified Severity Weighted Assessment Tool (mSWAT) by two dermatologists, and then had 3D TBP taken. 8 weeks later, the dermatologists evaluated the virtual images. Three independent dermatologists reviewed the virtual images twice, 8 weeks apart. Intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) assessed agreement between in-person and virtual assessments
