What is a full body scan and how isit completed by a dermatologist?

This is where the dermatologist takes photos of your skin and scans them into a computer. At a later date (s)he will do it again and the software is programmed to recognize changes in the skin’s surface. It can indicate whether or not new moles have appeared or their pigmentation and structure have changed. The software blends the two sets of pictures and presents the doctor with a "before and after" image on the monitor. Critical changes in the skin are highlighted with different colors or blinking circles. The doctor will then look more closely at those areas that may be suspicious.
Hope this answered your question. good luck with your scans. Susu
