Contactless lesion photography with smartphone camera, AI-based ABCDE analysis, longitudinal tracking and differential diagnosis support.
Lesion Tracking Platform — NevusTrack is a longitudinal monitoring system that uses AI to evaluate ABCDE criteria (Asymmetry, Border, Color, Diameter, Evolution) from lesion and nevus (mole) photographs. It works contactlessly with a standard smartphone camera; no extra medical device required.
The system evaluates ABCDE criteria such as diameter, pigment intensity, border irregularity and asymmetry from the lesion photo via AI. Changes of the same lesion region in the same patient over time can be compared; ∆ diameter, ∆ color and ∆ border metrics are computed automatically.
The AI evaluates five ABCDE criteria from the lesion photo. Each criterion is reported with a 0-100 score, description and severity. A risk tier (low/moderate/high) and differential diagnosis panel are automatically generated.
NevusTrack compares photographs of the same lesion over time to visualize growth, color and border changes. Trend charts and ∆ metrics are provided for each ABCDE criterion. An early warning is generated when flare or abnormal change is detected.
A correlation analysis between the patient's geographic location and seasonal UV index versus lesion risk is performed. High UV exposure is assessed as a factor increasing melanoma risk and contributes to risk stratification.
The platform supports clinical workflows as a screening and pre-triage tool. ABCDE score, risk tier and differential diagnosis panel provide structured, reproducible and comparable data to the physician. Final diagnosis and treatment decisions always rest with the specialist physician.
The software-centric architecture aligns with European Union carbon-reduction and ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) goals. Hardware independence brings medical consumable use close to zero and reduces the carbon footprint from patients' physical travel through telemedicine.
The following studies establish the clinical validity and methodological foundations of image-based AI assessment of skin lesions. Our NevusTrack platform draws inspiration from this literature but does not replace these methods.
