Molemap Melbourne
It comprises two tests:
1. Total Body Mole Mapping
It entails the use of a cutting-edge technology to take photographs of your entire body systematically. It creates a map of your moles (“body map”) to monitor even the slightest changes to your moles over time.
2. Full Body Skin Check
Our accredited doctors, who are specialised in skin cancer diagnosis and treatment, utilise a Dermoscope (Mole scanner) to examine all the spots on your body from head to toe. A Dermoscope (Mole scanner) is an epiluminescence microscope which magnifies spots up to 130 times in order to detect changes not visible to naked eyes.
Advantages of Molemap:
- Monitoring of the entire skin and each individual mole
- Examination and analysis from head to toe
- Regular check-ups will show any changes in the early stages
- No unnecessary surgery or biopsy
Who is Mole Mapping recommended for?
- A person with a high number of moles
- A person with personal or family history of melanoma
- Anyone who wants the most advanced and comprehensive method to diagnose skin cancer early
How does Total Body Mole Mapping work?
A new high-tech system developed by FOTOFINDER in Germany, called Bodystudio ATBM, uses an automated imaging system to photograph the patient from head to toe.
In a follow-up session, another set of head to toe images will be captured by ATBM and then it compares them with images from the previous examination.
The new or changed moles detected by the software are marked with red or yellow circles.
It allows monitoring of most of skin surface. It helps to detect malignant skin changes at the earliest possible stage and to avoid multiple excisions in patients at risk.
