Melanoscan Imaging System

Stamford, CT (openPR) 6 October 2010

The benefit of the entire system Melanoscan Full Digital imaging has been clinically tested with the following parameters: 1) a decision on-screen channel, 2) a clinical way, 3) clinical outcome and 4) the acceptance by the patient . The system employs technicians with automated analysis of serial whole-body imaging in a number of skin lesions to define, subject to further analysis by a dermatologist, with dermoscopy, surgery and pathology.

preliminary results suggest that the analysis of changes Melanoscan proof of the number of biopsies and improves the diagnostic accuracy. Whole body screening with Melanoscan offers a model where the precision tracking of the lesions, the confidence of patients and clinicians in the injury time optimize. “Not only is the system Melanoscan place a premium on time dermatologist, but it allows early detection of melanoma, based on evidence from the analysis means. This is that we no longer have to sacrifice productivity in order to more early, more curable Melanomas are, “says the inventor Melanoscan, Dr. Rhett druggies. Analysis of the results of the survey revealed a high patient satisfaction with the usability and process control. The full results of the study of clinical processes in the August 2010 issue of the described “Dermatology Online Journal.

A 1999 study of store and forward teledermatology demonstrates the power of digital images and stories in the transfer of clinical information consulting dermatologist. Similarly, studies of whole-body photography for the early detection of melanoma, the most important benefits of a reduced Breslow depth after the discovery of melanoma detected. To date, dermatology has hampered by a lack of access to high-quality, reproducible clinical photography due to time constraints, high costs, limited availability and confidentiality. The continuous increase in the incidence of melanoma, the prognosis and the economic burden that accompany advanced cases and the lack of a definitive agreement to emphasize the technique non-invasive detection of melanoma, the need for a system for screening effective on melanoma.

recent advances in technical methods of photography led to the use of a photo kiosk for multi-camera photo of the entire body. effective screening for melanoma, an integrated approach is needed, one is automated and reproducible from one year to another. Since the detection of changes in lesion with a picture of the whole body is a useful predictor for melanoma and has been with improved results (depth less than the discovery of the Breslow) and combines them associated with efficient management of clinical workflow represents value and effectiveness of screening. Melanomas, which have identified and successfully treated normally a 99 +% cure rate.
