Abstract

A method for predicting the presence of melanoma comprises performing molecular profiling of at least one of genomic and transcriptomic material extracted from a skin swab sample collected from a lesion of a patient, extracting one or more biological features from the molecular profiling, comparing the one or more extracted biological features to one or more biological features corresponding to one or more reference skin swab samples collected from a plurality of reference patients, and predicting, based on the comparing, whether the lesion of the patient is cancerous.
