Abstract
While recent advancements in Large Language Models have significantly advanced dermatological diagnosis, monolithic LLMs frequently struggle with fine-grained, large-scale multi-class diagnostic tasks and rare skin disease diagnosis owing to training data sparsity, while also lacking the interpretability and traceability essential for clinical reasoning. Although multi-agent systems can offer more transparent and explainable diagnostics, existing frameworks are primarily concentrated on Visual Question Answering and conversational tasks, and their heavy reliance on static knowledge bases restricts adaptability in complex real-world clinical settings. Here, we present SkinGPT-X, a multimodal collaborative multi-agent system for dermatological diagnosis integrated with a self-evolving dermatological memory mechanism. By simulating the diagnostic workflow of dermatologists and enabling continuous memory evolution, SkinGPT-X delivers transparent and trustworthy diagnostics for the management of complex and rare dermatological cases. To validate the robustness of SkinGPT-X, we design a three-tier comparative experiment. First, we benchmark SkinGPT-X against four state-of-the-art LLMs across four public datasets, demonstrating its state-of-the-art performance with a +9.6% accuracy improvement on DDI31 and +13% weighted F1 gain on Dermnet over the state-of-the-art model. Second, we construct a large-scale multi-class dataset covering 498 distinct dermatological categories to evaluate its fine-grained classification capabilities. Finally, we curate the rare skin disease dataset, the first benchmark to address the scarcity of clinical rare skin diseases which contains 564 clinical samples with eight rare dermatological diseases. On this dataset, SkinGPT-X achieves a +9.8% accuracy improvement, a +7.1% weighted F1 improvement, a +10% Cohen's Kappa improvement.

demonstrating its state-of-the-art performance with a +9.6% accuracy improvement on DDI31 and +13% weighted F1 gain on Dermnet over the state-of-the-art model.
This claim is explicitly stated in the abstract and supported by detailed results in the text and figures comparing SkinGPT-X to other models.
partial
integrated with a self-evolving dermatological memory mechanism.
The abstract and analysis sections clearly describe the self-evolving memory mechanism as a core component of SkinGPT-X's adaptability.
partial
we construct a large-scale multi-class dataset covering 498 distinct dermatological categories to evaluate its fine-grained classification capabilities.
The abstract mentions the construction of a large-scale multi-class dataset (Dermnet498) to evaluate fine-grained classification capabilities, and the analysis confirms its strong performance.
partial
On this dataset, SkinGPT-X achieves a +9.8% accuracy improvement, a +7.1% weighted F1 improvement, a +10% Cohen's Kappa improvement.
This claim is directly stated in the abstract with specific performance metrics and improvements on the rare skin disease dataset.
partial
SkinGPT-X employs a multi-agent system architecture, which mimics the workflow of a dermatological consultation.
The analysis and abstract both highlight the multi-agent system as a key architectural feature that simulates the diagnostic process of dermatologists.
partial
SkinGPT-X delivers transparent and trustworthy diagnostics for the management of complex and rare dermatological cases.
The title and abstract explicitly state the system's goal of delivering transparent and trustworthy diagnostics, particularly for challenging cases.
partial
SkinGPT-X could replace current dermatological software that lacks interpretability or accuracy, particularly in diagnosing rare diseases - areas where traditional AI systems often fail.
The 'disruption' section of the analysis suggests SkinGPT-X's potential to replace existing software due to its advantages in interpretability and rare disease diagnosis.
partial
Potential issues include integration with clinical workflows, ensuring ongoing data privacy as sensitive patient information is processed, and the need for regular updates to the system to incorporate new dermatological findings.
The 'caveats' section of the analysis explicitly lists integration with clinical workflows and data privacy as potential challenges.
partial
demonstrating its state-of-the-art performance with a +9.6% accuracy improvement on DDI31 and +13% weighted F1 gain on Dermnet over the state-of-the-art model.
This claim is explicitly stated in the abstract with specific percentage improvements and dataset names, and is supported by the results presented in the figures and tables.
partial
we propose a Self-EvolvingDermatological Diagnostic Memory(EvoDerma-Mem) mechanism, which empowers agents to autonomously refine their internal knowledge bases without the need for parameter retraining.
The abstract and analysis both highlight the 'self-evolving dermatological memory mechanism' and its function in knowledge refinement without retraining.
partial
On this dataset, SkinGPT-X achieves a +9.8% accuracy improvement, a +7.1% weighted F1 improvement, a +10% Cohen's Kappa improvement.
This claim is directly stated in the abstract with specific percentage improvements for accuracy, weighted F1, and Cohen's Kappa on the rare skin disease dataset.
