Abstract
Systems and methods for discriminating between malignant and benign pigmented skin lesions based on optical analysis using spatial distribution maps, morphological parameters, and additional diagnostic parameters derived from images of tissue lesions. A handheld optical transfer diagnosis device is disclosed capable of capturing a series of reflectance images of a skin lesion at a variety of angles of illumination and observation.
