Dermatology: questions, guidelines and a worked example
In dermatology the answer is only as good as the description: give morphology, distribution, duration and what has been tried. Management questions, such as when to move to systemic therapy, are where guidelines help most.
Typical questions in dermatology
Examples you can ask as written:
- When should a patient with psoriasis move from topical to systemic or biologic therapy?
- What is the stepwise treatment of moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis in adults?
- Which skin findings in a drug reaction suggest SJS/TEN or DRESS and need urgent referral?
- Which treatments are first-line for scabies, and how should close contacts be treated?
Guideline bodies to check
When an answer cites one of these, open it and check its year and the patients it covers:
- American Academy of Dermatology (AAD): guidelines of care for acne, atopic dermatitis and, with the National Psoriasis Foundation, psoriasis.
- European Dermatology Forum and EADV, including the EuroGuiDerm guidelines.
- British Association of Dermatologists (BAD) and NICE in the UK.
- Your national dermatology society.
Example: a question and what a cited answer includes
Question: “When should I start isotretinoin for acne, and what does it require?” A useful answer:
- Cites the AAD 2024 acne guideline, which recommends isotretinoin for severe acne, acne that scars or causes psychosocial burden, and acne that fails standard oral or topical therapy.
- Makes pregnancy prevention a requirement and names the national programme that applies, such as iPLEDGE in the United States.
- Lists the laboratory monitoring the guideline recommends and the tests it considers unnecessary.
- Links the guideline and the studies behind each point.
What you can ask in dermatology
From dermoscopy decisions to chronic disease management, grounded in current evidence.
Pigmented lesion evaluation
Apply the ABCDE criteria and dermoscopic features to a suspicious melanocytic lesion and clarify when excisional biopsy is warranted.
Acne management
Build an evidence-based regimen for moderate inflammatory acne, from topical retinoids and benzoyl peroxide to oral antibiotics and isotretinoin thresholds.
Rash differentials
Structure the differential for a generalized rash in an adult, distinguishing drug eruptions, viral exanthems and urgent red-flag presentations.
Evidence-based search built for clinicians
Ask any clinical question and get a concise, cited answer drawn from peer-reviewed literature and clinical guidelines.
Explore potential documentation gaps
Review available, supported records for potential billing details and documentation gaps. Validate findings against the complete clinical context.
Evidence at your fingertips
Explore available clinical guidelines and literature, and check the sources and relevance of each finding before applying it.
Findings for clinical review
Surface potential clinical risks and documentation gaps in supported records for professional review. Timing and coverage depend on the configured workflow.
Review potential billing gaps

Does Arkangel AI cite its dermatology sources?
Yes. Every answer links to the peer-reviewed studies and guidelines it draws from, so you can verify the evidence before acting.
Is this a replacement for clinical judgment?
No. Arkangel AI is clinical decision support. It accelerates evidence retrieval but does not replace your assessment of the individual patient or the lesion in front of you.
Can I ask about the latest dermatology guidelines?
Yes. Ask for the current evidence-based approach and Arkangel AI summarizes the relevant guideline recommendations with sources.
