  • Method and apparatus for multi-spectral imaging and analysis of skin lesions and biological tissues
    Patent number: 9572494
    Abstract: A multispectral nevoscope that uses specific wavelengths in the visible and infrared spectrum of electromagnetic radiation to transilluminate a skin-lesion or a biological tissue or specimen for imaging and maps multispectral 2-dimensional images into 3-dimensional virtual space for providing 3-D distributions of pre-defined parameters representing the characteristic properties (such as melanin, hemoglobin and deoxyhemoglobin, etc.) of a skin lesion. Methods are disclosed for analyzing and using the characteristic distributions of specific parameters for detection and management of skin-cancers, or characterization of a biological tissue or specimen.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 11, 2009
    Date of Patent: February 21, 2017
    Assignee: New Jersy Institute of Technology
