  1. The Fitzpatrick (scale of I–VI) and Monk (scale of 1–10) refer to the two skin tone scales used for this study. Analysis of differences between annotator consensus score and patient self-reported skin tone scores for Fitzpatrick and Monk scales. Mixed linear models adjusted for image location and annotator confidence.
