Using the app is FREE!

Melanoma is one of the easiest and hardest to treat cancer: if diagnosed in an early phase, the 5 year survival rate is about 98%, but if it is diagnosed too late, and became metastatic, the 5 year survival rate drops to 22%.

Emdee Skin provides an immediate risk indication for the most common types of skin cancer (e.g. melanoma, basal cell carcinoma) of a specific spot on the skin, based on a photo taken with your smartphone.

Emdee Skin uses state of the art Artificial Intelligence (AI) to categorize your skin lesion within a couple of seconds.

HOW TO TAKE PHOTOS

The lesion should be photographed directly (e.g. without the use of a dermatoscope, lens, mirror, or other appliances).

DO NOT USE the app to take a photo of a skin spot that:

- is not a human skin,

- is on mucosal surfaces (e.g. lips, genitals),

- contains foreign matter (e.g. tattoo, powder, skin cream, …),

- is under the nail,

- is covered by hair,

- is close in color with the surrounding skin,

- is on or near a skinfold,

- is close to a visible area with scar(s),

- is surrounded by non-intact skin (e.g. bleeding, ulcers, …), or

- has been previously damaged.
