Summary

This survey study purposes to determine and compare the biopsy/referral sensitivity and specificity of MelaFind to the average biopsy/referral sensitivity and specificity of dermatologists. 241 subjects logged into system but only 183 signed consents and completed the intake survey. Out of these 183, 155 were accounted for in the data analysis after exclusions were removed from the pool of subjects.
