Your Smartphone Can Turn into Skin Cancer Diagnostic Tool, Thanks to 3D Ultrasonic Sensor
Transforming Skin Diagnostics with 3D Ultrasonic Sensors Introduction In today’s fast-paced world, early and accurate diagnosis of skin conditions, especially skin cancer, is crucial. Traditional diagnostic tools are often inaccessible due to high costs and complexity, leading to late treatments and preventable deaths. The Innovation Thanks to our partnership with David from @xleaks7, we discovered a new Google patent that promises to revolutionize skin diagnostics. This patent aims to democratize skin health monitoring by leveraging technology already present in many smartphones. Google’s Solution In 2021, Google trialed its “dermatology assist tool” for spotting skin, hair, and nail conditions from uploaded images. The tool, awarded a CE mark in Europe, marked the beginning of Google’s journey into health diagnostic technology. The new patent enhances early detection and diagnosis of skin conditions, particularly skin cancer, using advanced 3D sonic sensors. These sensors ga...
