Digital diagnostics (FotoFinder) in Moscow
Diagnosis of skin tumors using the FotoFinder device in K+31. Skin mapping, detection of skin cancer, melanoma using artificial intelligence.
We recommend that you undergo a study using our new German Photofinder device, which will help establish an accurate diagnosis at the preclinical stage of the disease. Image analysis is carried out using artificial intelligence, and the device also allows for dynamic observation. The study is especially recommended for risk groups, such as: people with a large number of moles; have previously had a malignant skin tumor; having large or unusual moles.
PhotoFinder
In the modern world, where new technologies are used in medicine every day, Photofinder has become an innovation that significantly improves the quality of diagnosis and treatment of skin diseases.
At the multidisciplinary clinic “K+31”, a highly qualified oncologist and dermatologist in Moscow diagnoses tumors using this high-tech equipment. This helps to identify a malignant skin disease at an early stage, begin treatment on time and save lives.
Skin cancer and melanoma: suspicious signs
Skin cancer and melanoma are malignant diseases that can occur on the skin. Understanding the signs of these diseases helps you recognize the problem in time and seek help:
- Signs of skin cancer include changes in shape, size, color and texture of moles. Ulcers that do not heal and bleeding from them.
- Melanoma is a type of malignancy that usually appears as changes in the shape and color of moles, as well as the appearance of new pigmented formations.
Dermatology and dermatoscopy
Dermatology is a medical specialty dedicated to the diagnosis and treatment of skin diseases. One of the key tools that is used in dermatology, is dermatoscopy. But what is it?
Dermatoscopy is a method that allows doctors to study moles and other changes on the skin in more detail. Using a special dermatoscope device, you can check moles and identify their characteristics that may indicate possible skin diseases.
Skin cancer is a broad category of cancer that includes various types. The main ones include:
Basal cell carcinoma (basal cell carcinoma).
This type is the most common type of skin cancer on the face and usually grows slowly. It begins in the basal cells of the epidermis and does not metastasize.
Squamous.
Develops from flat cells in the epidermis. It is also often associated with prolonged exposure to ultraviolet radiation and can sometimes metastasize.
Melanoma.
It begins in melanocytes, the cells responsible for pigmentation. Has a tendency to aggressive growth and metastasis, and therefore requires rapid detection and treatment.
Digital dermatoscopy and examination stages using Photofinder
In modern medicine, dermatoscopy has moved to a new level with the use of FotoFinder. This outstanding device not only allows you to check moles, but also analyze them digitally, which provides more detailed and accurate information about the condition of the skin.
ThePhotofinder helps diagnose skin diseases, including skin cancer and melanoma. The procedure is as follows:
- The first stage is preparing the patient. You need to undress down to your underpants and remove jewelry or other items that might get in the way.
- Before the scan, the dermatologist cleans the area to be examined and prepares it for the procedure. This helps remove dust, dirt and makeup from the surface of the skin, ensuring more accurate results.
- Then the specialist begins to study the skin using Photofinder. This device is equipped with a special camera that takes high-quality photographs in various modes, including polarized and non-polarized lighting. These photographs capture even the smallest details and changes on the surface of the skin.
- The device automatically creates a skin map by integrating all acquired images. This gives a complete picture of the condition and allows you to identify any anomalies or suspicious formations.
- One of the key features of a digital dermatoscope is its ability to analyze images using artificial intelligence. Machine learning algorithms can identify changes that might otherwise go unnoticed by the human eye.
- Upon completion of the scan and analysis, a dermatologist evaluates the results. If suspicious formations are detected, the specialist provides the patient with a diagnosis and recommendations for further steps, including the possibility of a biopsy or other additional tests.
Thus, Photofinder combines modern technologies, including high-quality scanning and artificial intelligence. This ensures accurate and rapid diagnosis of skin diseases, which helps doctors and patients identify the problem in a timely manner and begin treatment.
Indications for the study:
- The presence of multiple moles or a history of family skin disease.
- If there are changes in the shape, color, size or texture of moles, or if there are sores that don't heal. The study is carried out to rule out cancer.
- When diagnosed with melanoma or if there are risk factors for the development of this disease. The photofinder allows you to monitor the dynamics of changes in moles and pigmented formations.
- Presence of suspicious moles. The question of whether a biopsy is necessary is being decided.
- After starting treatment for psoriasis or eczema, digital dermatoscopy can be used to monitor the effectiveness of therapy and assess the dynamics of changes in the skin.
Dermatologists can decide whether testing is necessary based on the patient's medical history and clinical symptoms. This tool helps to identify diseases in the early stages, which allows timely treatment to begin and avoid complications.
The study of moles and formations can be carried out for adults and children. Full mapping The body has a height limit - above 130 cm. A single examination of a mole is possible from the birth of the child.
