ARTICLE SUMMARY:
Even skilled, experienced dermatologists make incorrect judgments when examining lesions on the skin to see if they are benign or malignant skin cancer, and these errors can lead to a delay of necessary treatment. AI Medical’s intelligent software Dermalyser is designed to diagnose a lesion in an instant with accuracy equal or superior to expert dermatologists.
Despite extensive training and experience, no doctor is infallible.

The consequences of a false-positive or a false-negative can range from disconcerting to devastating, and Christoffer Ekström, CEO of Swedish start-up AI Medical Technology, is personally familiar with the impact of both outcomes.
