The World's Most Advanced Skin Analytics System

"Dermoscopy enhances the diagnosis of pigmented and other lesions. In specific, the diagnosis of melanoma and other skin cancers is improved beyond what is possible with the naked eye examination. As the first Canadian dermatologist to use a dermoscopy(device) almost 30 years ago, I understand the utility of this device and it has become an essential tool in my daily practice. The team at MetaOptima have raised the bar further when it comes to the dermoscopic evaluation of pigmented lesions. They have created a compact and inexpensive dermoscope that allows the general public to assess their own lesions and/or interact with a trained dermoscopist through a secure web-based portal. There are a number of features that are worthy of mention: First the optics on the device are excellent and provide a clear image of the lesion in question; second, the device is easily installed on a smartphone; third, the Dermengine App provides a straightforward and logical user interface; and fourth, lesion evaluation using their teledermatology platform has proved to be close to what would be experienced in a face to face patient encounter.

I believe the DermEngine App and accompanying smartphone dermoscope are setting the standard for patient evaluation when it comes to pigmented lesions. With a universal shortage of physicians, having a system that can quickly and securely triage pigmented lesion cases through the internet, this approach should help to reduce some of the waiting time on our already overtaxed healthcare system.

"I have been using DermEngine for a while now and this system changed definitely my practice. The software is easy to use and in a few click we are able to store images of our patients using the user friendly interface of DermEngine. A great plus is the smartphone app that can be used to take images and transfer them into the platform within a few seconds.

The real benefits for my daily work are, however, represented by the network functionalities. I am responsible of a referral center for skin cancer and using DermEngine I was able to connect all the territorial dermatologists referring patients to us. With DermEngine, referring doctors are now able to get real time feedback of the diagnostic and therapeutic procedures we implement for their patients. Not only, doctors are also able to ask specific questions, including second opinions on specific images of difficult to diagnose lesions.

In sum, to my eye DermEngine is one of the best solution to manage patients with pigmented and non pigmented skin lesions, to share patients information among different doctors and to connect doctors for second opinion and teleconsultation.

"I have been using Dr. MoleScope/DermEngine for the past 9 months in my skin cancer practice, where it has now become an essential medical imaging tool. The simplicity of use of the DermEngine app via a familiar iOS device and interface (iPhone or iPod Touch), and its seamless integration and syncing with the paired DermEngine web app using any browser (best with Google Chrome) on any operating system (Windows or Mac) makes this system extremely versatile.

The fact that all images are stored securely in the Cloud, obviates any need for local storage and backup. Software upgrades to both Dr. MoleScope and DermEngine are simply done by the end-user without the need for IT support.

The MoleBox feature allows for rapid acquisition of individual lesion images with simple localization, macroscopic and dermatoscopic views, and the ability for short-term monitoring and follow up to easily compare images over time.

The Full Body Imaging (total body photography) feature of DermEngine provides a great platform for long term monitoring, and its unique MoleMatch algorithm assists the clinician to detect change.

The team is always available, eager to assist, readily responds to suggestions for improvement, and will tailor the system to meet your individual needs.

I would highly recommend this brilliant software as an essential addition to your clinical toolkit.

"At SunDoctors, we have been working with the DermEngine team for many months. They have taken an excellent, science-based, idea and improved it by collaborating clinically with us. The association has been close and the DermEngine team extremely responsive; literally day and night, in a constantly friendly and helpful way. The process has been a pleasure and the end product is better than anything else I have seen on the worldwide market. We are proud to be the flagship for DermEngine in Australia.
