What photo diagnosis can and cannot tell you
A photo can narrow down how urgent something looks. It cannot confirm what a condition is. Here is exactly where that line sits, and how to read a confidence score honestly.

Where photo analysis helps — and where it stops
It is good at sorting urgency
Whether something can reasonably wait, warrants a GP visit, needs a specialist, or should be seen today is a question a photograph can meaningfully inform. That sorting is what this tool is built to do.
It cannot confirm a diagnosis
Many conditions look alike in a photograph, and some serious ones look unremarkable. Naming a condition takes examination, history, and often a biopsy or blood test. No photo tool substitutes for that, and this one does not try.
Its accuracy depends on your photo
Lighting, focus, angle and skin tone all move the result. The confidence score reflects that. A low score is not a reassuring result — it means the image did not give the analysis enough to work with.

How a photo result is expressed
Instead of a condition name, you get one of four urgency levels — roughly the vocabulary a triage nurse uses to decide who is seen, and how soon.
