Psoriasis Monitoring

Advanced imaging to document and monitor psoriasis

Psoriasis Monitoring uses advanced FotoFinder imaging technology to objectively document the extent and progression of psoriasis across the skin. Standardised high-resolution images create a detailed visual record of affected areas, helping clinicians assess changes in the condition over time and monitor how the skin responds to treatment. Digital documentation can provide a more consistent way to follow psoriasis progression than relying on memory or isolated examinations alone. During follow-up appointments, new images can be compared with previous records to help evaluate whether affected areas have improved, remained stable or progressed. This visual information supports clinical assessment and can help guide ongoing treatment decisions based on the individual patient's condition and response. By combining advanced imaging with professional medical care, psoriasis monitoring provides a clearer picture of your skin throughout your treatment journey.

What is psoriasis monitoring?

Psoriasis monitoring involves regularly assessing and documenting areas of the skin affected by psoriasis. Advanced imaging provides standardised photographs that can be compared over time to help clinicians evaluate changes in the extent and appearance of the condition.

How can FotoFinder imaging help with psoriasis?

FotoFinder technology provides detailed and standardised visual documentation of affected skin. These images can be stored and compared during future appointments, helping your healthcare professional objectively monitor changes and assess how your psoriasis is responding to treatment.

Can psoriasis monitoring show whether my treatment is working?

Imaging can help document visible changes in affected areas throughout treatment. By comparing current images with previous records, your healthcare professional can evaluate changes alongside your symptoms and clinical findings to help determine how your skin is responding.

How often should my psoriasis be monitored?

The appropriate monitoring frequency will depend on the severity and extent of your psoriasis, your current treatment and how your condition responds. Your WestMed healthcare professional will recommend a follow-up schedule based on your individual needs.

Does psoriasis imaging replace a medical consultation?

No. FotoFinder imaging is used to support professional medical assessment and ongoing monitoring. Your healthcare professional will consider your images together with your symptoms, medical history, clinical examination and treatment response when making decisions about your care.
