Abstract

See full text

An affordable method appropriate even for solo home-users without a partner to image their skin even in areas that they cannot see directly, or photograph. The method uses a device in contact with the skin to create images, and physical aids for consistently aligning the images. This permits comparison with later images to find growing lesions. The purpose includes the early detection of possible pre-melanomas and melanomas so diagnosis and treatment can be sought earlier. The images provide reliable proof of growth, a symptom, for the dermatologist's diagnosis. Alternately, a single set of easily referenced baseline images can be created.
