Epiluminescence - Map of nevi (moles)

The epiluminescence mole mapping, or dermatoscopy, is a non-invasive diagnostic examination that allows the dermatologist to examine skin lesions and moles in detail at a higher magnification than possible with the naked eye.

The FOTOFINDER epiluminescence is an advanced digital videodermatoscopy system for analyzing moles and skin lesions, which uses a special high-definition video camera to acquire highly magnified digital images. The computerized system allows detailed observation of skin structures not visible to the naked eye, stores images, and compares them over time to monitor any changes and diagnose early modifications that could indicate melanoma or other skin conditions.

INDICATION

Mole mapping is indicated for:

Prevention and monitoring in subjects of all ages
High-risk patients: presence of multiple lesions or presence of melanoma risk factors
Subjects with atypical moles: presence of moles with potentially suspicious characteristics
Patients with family history of melanoma

PURPOSE

Skin cancer prevention: early detection of potentially dangerous lesions through in-depth analysis of sub-cutaneous characteristics
Monitoring of mole evolution
Identification of suspicious lesions: distinction between benign lesions and those potentially evolving into malignant pathologies
Creation of personal digital archive for follow-up

The Villa Stuart Clinic is affiliated with major insurance companies and supplementary health care funds.
