The complete assembly of the final scanner

The machine is formed by four robots, each of them moves the vision system device to the points defined by the Vision PC. Each robot will operate in a quadrant of the body map.

Standards in whole body photography, digital dermoscopy and artificial intelligence applied to the early diagnosis of melanoma

Melanoma is one of the most aggressive forms of skin cancer, responsible for 60% of lethal skin neoplasms. Early detection is crucial for improving patient outcomes, particularly as the incidence of melanoma continues to rise, posing an increasing public health challenge due to the aging population and extended life expectancy.

The hospital operator interface on the final scanner

The start, preparation and validation of the data acquisition will be commanded by the HMI, the Hospital Operator Interface. This interface is crucial as it serves as the primary point of control and interaction for medical professionals during the scanning process.

Implications for Policy, Practice, and Further Research for Generative AI in Art Therapy for Melanoma Patients

The emergence of AI-generated art within therapeutic settings necessitates the establishment of guidelines to address ethical and privacy concerns including informed consent, data protection, and the confidentiality of patients’ medical images and resultant artworks.

Video presentation of the iToBoS challenge

The goal of this competition is to develop state-of-the-art machine learning techniques for detecting multiple skin lesions in clinical images.

Patient protection in the final scanner

The design of the iToBoS scanner places a strong emphasis on patient protection, particularly in the context of its robotic components operating in close proximity to the patient.
