چکیده
Artificial intelligence is transforming the detection and management of skin cancers by augmenting visual assessment, dermoscopy, and histopathology with objective, image‑driven algorithms that can approach or exceed expert‑level diagnostic performance. In this paper, the current burden and clinical challenges of melanoma and non‑melanoma skin cancers are outlined, followed by an overview of traditional diagnostic pathways and their limitations, including variability between clinicians and restricted access to specialist care. The main body of the work describes machine learning and deep learning approaches for classifying dermoscopic, clinical, and histopathologic images, highlighting key datasets, regulatory milestones, smartphone‑based and teledermatology applications, and evidence comparing algorithm performance with that of dermatologists and dermatopathologists. Advantages such as improved triage, support for self‑surveillance, reduced unnecessary biopsies, and potential time and cost savings are balanced against persistent concerns regarding dataset quality, generalizability, bias, privacy, and the need for standardized evaluation metrics. The paper concludes that, while only a small number of AI systems for skin cancer diagnosis have regulatory approval, judicious integration of these tools alongside clinical expertise could substantially enhance early detection and treatment planning, provided that technical, ethical, and regulatory gaps are systematically addressed.
