In this study a fluorescent contrast dye is applied to a suspicious skin lesion. Images are acquired and processed. The information is used to develop a prediction model for the presence of malignant transformation in the skin.
Images acquired in the study are used for the development of a software analysis program.

Correlation between imaging and pathology.
Patients are imaged and then undergo a biopsy. Images are used to develop a software predicting model based on pathology. Sensitivity and specificity parameters are calculated. No long term follow up is required since the biopsy is performed on the skin imaged. The follow up required is for the pathology for the skin excised.
Time frame: No long term follow up is necessary.
Acute response
The acute dermal response to the imaging procedure is evaluated.
Time frame: up to 1 day
