Secure referral and image intake for dermatology

Suspected skin cancer two-week-wait referrals live or die on image quality and complete history. Valident captures structured referrals with high-quality images and the detail your triage needs.

The Challenge

When a referral arrives without usable images

Teledermatology and 2WW referrals often arrive with poor-quality photographs, missing lesion detail or incomplete history — forcing re-referral and delaying suspected-cancer pathways.

Structured intake enforces what a good dermatology referral needs before it is submitted.

  • Poor-quality or missing lesion images
  • Two-week-wait suspected skin cancer timing
  • Incomplete history and lesion description
  • Re-referrals that restart the clock
