Videodermoscopy – Skin Lesion Examination Kraków Kraków

Videodermoscopy is a diagnostic examination of skin lesions that helps determine whether a lesion poses a health risk. This method is used to classify pigmented moles as benign, suspicious, or potentially malignant. With the help of advanced software, a videodermatoscope enables a detailed analysis of even the smallest skin changes on the body. The test involves examining moles using a camera, which transmits the image to a computer. The image is then displayed on a monitor with up to 200x magnification and analyzed with the device’s software. The data collected during the videodermoscopy is further evaluated by a dermatologist. Today, videodermoscopy is one of the most accurate methods for diagnosing moles. The images obtained allow for precise monitoring of pigmented lesions, greatly increasing the effectiveness of early detection of malignant changes.
The main goal of videodermoscopy is to assess pigmented lesions for malignancy and potential risk of melanoma. Using an ultra-sensitive, high-resolution camera, the physician examines lesions under significant magnification, analyzing their shape, color, and size. The device also allows photographic documentation to be saved, enabling the doctor to compare and track changes in a lesion over time.
