Abstract

Among other things, on a two-dimensional electronic display are shown simultaneously: (a) at least a partial body view of a surface of the human model on which a location of a skin lesion on a corresponding real human has been indicated, and (b) an image of the lesion area that corresponds to the partial body view of the human model.

Claims (23)

1. A computer-implemented method comprising

showing simultaneously, on a two-dimensional electronic display, (a) at least a partial body view of a surface of a human model on which a location of a skin lesion on a corresponding real human has been indicated, and (b) an image of the lesion area on the real human that corresponds to the location of the skin lesion as indicated on the partial body view of the human model.

2. The method of claim 1 also including showing, simultaneously with the partial body view and the image of the lesion, a thumbnail of the partial body view.

3. The method of claim 1 in which the partial body view bears an indication of the location of the skin lesion.

4. The method of claim 1 in which the image comprises a reconstructed dermoscopic image.

5. The method of claim 1 in which the image comprises a traditional dermoscopic image.

6. The method of claim 1 also comprising enabling a user to choose whether to display the image of the lesion or a model of the lesion.

7. A computer-implemented method comprising:

showing, on a two-dimensional electronic display, an image that identifies a location of a skin lesion and an indication of the skin lesion on the skin of a real human that corresponds to the shown image of the location of the lesion, and

showing legends, for the respective skin lesions, each indicating a status of a corresponding skin lesion and a status of a scanned image of the skin lesion.

8. The method of claim 7 in which the image that identifies the location comprises a reconstructed dermoscopic image.

9. The method of claim 7 in which the image that identifies the location comprises a traditional dermoscopic image.

10. The method of claim 7 in which the status of the scanned image comprises progress in completion of an analysis of the image.

11. The method of claim 7 in which the legend comprises a color.

12. The method of claim 7 in which the legend comprises an icon.

13. The method of claim 7 in which the legend comprises a progress bar.

14. A computer-implemented method comprising

showing simultaneously, on a two-dimensional electronic display, a list of rows where each row comprises an image representing a lesion location, and a next diagnostic or treatment step in a column-wise list format.

15. The method of claim 14 in which the image comprises a reconstructed dermoscopic image.

16. The method of claim 14 in which the image comprises a traditional dermoscopic image.

17. The method of claim 14 in which the next diagnostic or treatment step comprises biopsy.

18. The method of claim 14 in which the next diagnostic or treatment step comprises observation.

19. The method of claim 14 in which the next diagnostic or treatment step is indicated by a color.
