Official Title: Evaluation of Pigmented Skin Lesions With MelaFind(R) System
Study ID: NCT00434057
Brief Summary: The purpose of this clinical trial is to demonstrate that MelaFind®, a new instrument that uses machine vision for non-invasive early detection of cutaneous pigmented malignant melanoma, is safe and effective. MelaFind® acquires digital images of the lesion with illumination in different spectral bands, from visible to near infrared, and automatically analyzes these images. Diagnostic accuracy of MelaFind® and that of study dermatologists will be evaluated. The reference standard will be final interpretation of lesions by central dermatohistopathology.
