✦ Synopsis


Reflectance imaging spectroscopy at 17 selected wavelengths in the range 420-1040 nm has been applied as a method to discriminate melanoma from other pigmented cutaneous lesions. Reflectance images are acquired for 1 X primary melanomas and 33 benign naevi in 44 patients.

From each spectral image, four parameters rclatcd to lesion reflectance (mean value of reflectance. val-iegation, area and roundness of lesion)
