Abstract
eHealth and Developing Countries (1): This paper will describe an ongoing study examining the feasibility of and satisfaction with a telemedicine network that aims to enhance delivery of dermatological care in relatively remote areas of South Africa using a simple store-and-forward telemedicine system. In addition, issues of sustainability of such a teledermatology network will be discussed.
