What's New In Digital Health

This article discusses the current capabilities of total body photography software alongside its limitations. The work goes on to summarize how intelligent dermatology tools such as DermEngine and a dermoscope can greatly enhance imaging quality and patient outcomes.

Today, MetaOptima's CEO, Maryam Sadeghi is attending the Telus Ventures Summit held in Toronto to discuss the latest breakthroughs and innovations for artificial intelligence in dermatology and dermoscopy as well as speak on current applications and cases of AI in healthcare.

Total body photography has become an area of growing interest in the world of dermatology. Systems such as DermEngine offer intelligent dermatology tools designed to further streamline imaging processes while optimizing analyses of dermoscopic images.

CBC's Dr. Lin has recently recognized MoleScope, our smartphone dermatoscope as being one of these valuable tools in dermatology. Due to the rising rates in smartphone usage, companies are developing tools to support patients in their health, such as for the early detection of skin cancer.

Studies suggest that artificial intelligence (AI) has reached the capacity to match or exceed dermatologists in diagnosing skin cancers through examination of dermoscopy images. This article summarizes the latest applications of AI in dermatology while discussing their advantages in dermatology.

In order to provide quality care while promoting the early detection of skin cancer, patients must be involved in their skin health. In addition to providing patients with educational resources, dermatologists are now able to offer MoleScope- a mobile dermoscope designed for in-home use.
