A new development based on active infrared sensing could help examine and monitor skin lesions in a variety of diseases, including cancer, burns and frostbite. The press service noted that the device stands out for its simple design, small size, self-powered power supply and relatively low cost.
The device will allow experts and doctors of the Ministry of Emergencies to carry out primary diagnosis of skin lesions in emergency situations and on the front lines. It will also be useful in cosmetology and will allow you to compare the depth of skin lesions with healthy areas.
In the future, scientists plan to expand the device’s functionality by using a neural network to classify various skin lesions to help diagnose cancer, including melanoma.
