    Abstract: A major object of this invention is to provide a remote diagnosis apparatus, a remote diagnosis system, a user terminal, a program, a diagnosis program, and a storage for easily diagnosing a pigmentary deposition portion. A user of the system picks up the skin having benign nevus pigmentosus that might be melanoma through a dermoscope using a portable telephone with a camera to which the dermoscope is attached by means of an adapter, accesses to the Internet using an Internet connection function of the portable telephone, and sends the picked up skin image to the remote diagnosis apparatus.
