Background Computer-aided diagnosis of skin lesions is a growing area of research, but its
application to nonmelanoma skin cancer (NMSC) is relatively under-studied. The purpose of
this review is to synthesize the research that has been conducted on automated detection of
NMSC using digital images and to assess the quality of evidence for the diagnostic accuracy
of these technologies. Methods Eight databases (PubMed, Google Scholar, Embase, IEEE
Xplore, Web of Science, SpringerLink, ScienceDirect, and the ACM Digital Library) were …
