Systematic early recognition of skin cancer

microDERM is a professional imaging system for progressive early recognition of skin cancer and image documentation.

The microDERM imaging system was developed within the course of the worldwide largest study for computer-assisted early recognition of skin cancer - „DANAOS“.

Due to a close cooperation between well-known clinics and established doctors worldwide a technologically convincing system with a scientifically substantiated diagnostic support was created. microDERM convinces with practice-oriented functionality, most modern technology and simple operationality.

DesignPreisRedDotAward_w Decorated with a number of scientific and design awards, microDERM sets internationally new benchmarks in the field of computer-assisted early recognition of skin cancer.

The next generation dermoscope

High quality standardized images are an indispensable requirement for reliable diagnosis. The microDERM® system can offer this and much more. The examined skin lesion is directly displayed on the screen and can even be shown in different magnifications between 10 and 50 fold at the touch of a button on the camera. Everything can be performed without changing the optics and without additional actions.

Patented camera- and optical technology

Microprocessors, integrated in the patented microDERM camera, adjust illumination intensity and colour mixture, so that there is a constant image quality for the follow-ups over years – a unique feature worldwide. Furthermore, clinical images of large skin areas can be made realistically by use of the macro function and can be printed in best photographic quality in order to document successful treatment for example. Apart from brilliant images, microDERM offers you additional possibilities for diagnostic support for follow-ups.

Standardised image quality

The dermoscopic images are supplemented by 3D information in high-resolution image quality, which allows accurate and reliable findings even on the basis of vital-histological criteria. Using a patented process, the high-precision optic system ensures that colour, brightness variations or geometric distortions do not occur. The standardized image photograph is a prerequisite for reliable and reproducible findings and the computer supported diagnosis. This is a significant benefit when compared to first generation video dermoscopic devices with simple zoom optics.

Automatic calibration

To provide uniformly standardized image quality in different magnifications, the integrated microprocessors can adjust the exposure intensity and colour mixture automatically – a unique feature. The automatic calibration ensures that the system does not make any changes even years later, which can be misrepresented in a follow-up examination. A time-consuming manual calibration by the user during operation is not necessary. The operation of the system is therefore both efficient and simple.

microDERM: the recommendation in terms of image quality

The high quality of optics and illumination makes images of highest quality possible.

microDERM is suited for examination and documentation of:

microDERM supports you in the analysis of:

• melanoma skin cancer

• non-melanoma skin cancers basal and squamous cell carcinomas

• diseases of skin with defined vascular changes

• parasitic diseases, foreign bodies etc.

• before and afterwards documentation of skin treatments

 

Flexible representation

In addition to microscopic images, the system can also provide clinical images in a brilliant quality, which can be archived for documentation purposes. The images can be sent by e-mail and can also be printed on high-quality photographic paper. It is also possible to export images to prepare lecture slides.

A system for the practice

Nevi documentation, computer supported diagnosis, photographical documentation of clinical findings, hair analysis with digital trichogram function, telemedicine, practice marketing - you can cover all areas of photographical documentation and processing with a modular microDERM® image system.

Quick and simple daily use

Time is in short supply in day-to-day life and the design of the microDERM® system keeps this in mind. The intuitive user interface allows efficient work. No mouse click is superfluous and no key has to be pressed unnecessarily. Many working processes have been automated so that an examination can be made during the same time it would take using a hand-held dermoscope.The patient database can store all important information and allows for importing and exporting of images.

Staying on the safe side

Complex documentations can be performed in only a few steps. The location related storage of images developed and used for the first time by Visiomed ensures quick and reproducible work. Images can be assigned in a practical manner on either a live overview taken of the patient or a pre-drawn graphic overview. The automatic follow-up examination is even faster. If another image of the same lesion is taken at a later time, microDERM® can automatically display the previous image alongside the new image for comparison during a follow-up examination.

Sound diagnostic support

After the image has been captured the integrated DANAOS expert system can calculate a classification value based on the world’s largest multi-centre study for computer-aided early detection of skin cancer. Borderline lesions can thus be classified reliably and quickly by their dermoscopical relevant features using the ABCD rule as well as self-teaching neural networks.

Efficient follow-up

A follow-up examination using the microDERM® system can support modern medical care. Details can be magnified in steps and an automatic display comparing earlier findings with the current images allows the system to show even the smallest changes in the skin. The integrated DANAOS expert system is able to calculate changes of archived images.

Overview or dermoscopic images at the touch of a button

Standardized dermoscopic images are the basis of an advanced image system. But the day-to-day requirements in a modern dermatological practice are far beyond that: aesthetic operations, laser treatments and the documentation of treatment successes require clinical images.

Only images in brilliant quality will guarantee reliability and convince the patient. The macro-function can be used to document even large skin zones without an inconvenient change to the optics. All essential steps can be controlled directly via the camera to save time and allow more attention to the patient.

Flexible representation

In addition to microscopic images, the system can also provide clinical images in a brilliant quality, which can be archived for documentation purposes. The images can be sent by e-mail and can also be printed on high-quality photographic paper. It is also possible to export images to prepare lecture slides

 Simple, quick and reliable telemedicine

Images can be sent to colleagues and laboratories with the click of the mouse, using e-mail. It is also possible to discuss images with colleagues online in an Internet conference. The partners only need Internet access. Extensive coding and seamless integration allow extremely user-friendly operation with maximum reliability.

It’s the details which make the use of the microDERM® system so efficient and convenient in every day use. Experience gained from years of development and the close co-operation with dermatological clinics and established specialists throughout Europe have resulted in a product that meets the challenging demands of modern dermatology. All components meet the stringent regulations governing medical products.
