The focus of the HSIAIC include: to publish consensuses and guidelines, to conduct relevant conferences and communication events, to perform clinical research and basic study in terms of skin non-invasive imaging diagnostic technology, to develop new skin imaging equipment and a big data management system, to promote the application of block chain technology in smart healthcare, to develop artificial intelligence systems based on skin imaging resources, to regulate the application of artificial intelligence in the fields of dermatology medical treatment, education, and scientific research, to promote the development of remote dermatology, and to establish the relationship and communication with relevant international organizations.

With the support and approval from CPAM, the Huaxia Skin Image and Artificial Intelligence Cooperation has been set up to promote the development of this field.

By improving the overall level of Chinese physicians in this field and integrating with the world organizations, they are committed to enhance their influence in this field globally.
