splits<\/span> or even evil faults.<\/p>\nDermatoscopy uses a portable skin surface microscope to examine skin lesions. In expert hands the chance of a correct diagnosis increases, but requires considerable training and experience.<\/p>\n
In the spectrometric analysis of skin lesions, a computer program is used that calculates and extracts information about the cells and structures of the skin. The method uses a beam of light that penetrates below the surface of the skin. Clear images taken with a digital camera or handheld scanner are fed into a computer for detailed analysis.<\/p>\n
In electrical impedance spectroscopy, the different electrical properties of human tissue are used to classify cellular<\/span> structures and therefore detect malignant tumors.<\/p>\nSciBase electronic impedance spectroscopy is a patented technology developed at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, Sweden.<\/p>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/span>How electrical impedance spectroscopy<\/span> worked?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n- Skin tissues have different electrical properties under different medical conditions.<\/li>\n
- Based on this, it is possible to identify a condition, such as melanoma, using Nevisense's unique EIS method.<\/li>\n
- \nElectrical impedance spectroscopy<\/span> It is a measure of the overall resistance within the tissue to alternating currents of various frequencies.<\/li>\n
- An electrical signal is applied across the skin lesion using an innovative electrode system at the tip of the Nevisense\u2122 probe.<\/li>\n
- The frequencies used by Nevisense\u2122 (1 kHz \u2013 2.5 MHz) relate to clinically relevant properties, such as the composition of intra- and extracellular environments, the shape and size of cells, and the composition of the cell membrane.<\/li>\n
- To cover the lesion in both width and depth, measurement is performed at 35 frequencies and four depth settings over the lesion in a total of 10 permutations.<\/li>\n
- At first, a reference measurement is made on healthy skin near the lesion.<\/li>\n
- This procedure is repeated in the lesion to be examined.<\/li>\n
- Nevisense's advanced algorithm classifies the lesion based on measurement data from both the lesion and the reference.<\/li>\n
- The Nevisense\u2122 classifier provides an EIS score output on the Nevisense\u2122 screen that reflects the degree of atypia<\/span> identified by the method<\/li>\n
- The results of visual inspection of suspected melanoma can be added to the objective information provided by Nevisense\u2122 to reach a more informed clinical decision.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
<\/span>What are the advantages of electrical impedance spectroscopy analysis?<\/span><\/h2>\nElectrical impedance spectroscopy<\/span> The analysis complements doctors' visual examinations, particularly in cases of cutaneous<\/span> lesions with unclear clinical signs of melanoma. Benefits included:<\/p>\n\n- A quick and simple procedure.<\/li>\n
- Greater diagnostic precision<\/li>\n
- Objective analysis<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
<\/span>What clinical evidence supports the effectiveness<\/span> of electrical impedance spectroscopy?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n- \nElectrical impedance spectroscopy<\/span> has been evaluated for more than a decade, from development and proof of principle to clinical studies in skin Cancer<\/span> and benign<\/span> skin lesions.<\/li>\n
- In a multicenter study, a prospective, blinded study conducted at 5 US and 17 European research sites, a total of 1,951 subjects with 2,416 injuries were enrolled in the study.<\/li>\n
- All eligible skin lesions in the study were examined with the Nevisense\u2122 Electrical Impedance Spectroscopy System and by excision. biopsy<\/span> subject to histopathological<\/span> assessment.<\/li>\n
- 1,943 injuries were evaluable for the primary<\/span> efficacy endpoint (including 265 melanomas<\/span>48 basal<\/span> cell carcinomas and seven scaly<\/span> cell carcinomas).<\/li>\n
- The results of the pivotal study showed a sensitivity of 97% for evil one<\/span> melanoma and specificity of 34,4%.<\/li>\n
- The observed sensitivity for non-melanoma skin cancer was 100%.<\/li>\n
- The positive and negative predictive values of Nevisense\u2122 were 21.1% and 98.2%, respectively.<\/li>\n
- The observed sensitivity and specificity for melanoma from investigational site histopathologists were 85.0% and 98.1%, respectively.<\/li>\n
- not serious adverse events<\/span> or unexpected adverse effects of the device were observed throughout the study.<\/li>\n
- However, there is insufficient data to determine the role of Navisense\u2122 in the treatment of patients with melanoma.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/span>What is the clinical use of electrical impedance spectroscopy?<\/span>
\n<\/span><\/h2>\n\n- The Nevisense\u2122 EIS System is intended for use on skin lesions with one or more clinical or historical features of melanoma.<\/li>\n
- The system is designed to be used when a clinician chooses to obtain additional information when considering excision<\/span>.<\/li>\n
- It is not intended to be used to confirm a clinical diagnosis of melanoma.<\/li>\n
- It should be used by doctors trained in the clinical diagnosis of skin cancer.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
<\/span>What are the indications for electrical impedance spectroscopy?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n- \nElectrical impedance spectroscopy<\/span> It is indicated for use in primary skin lesions with a diameter between 2 mm and 20 mm.<\/li>\n
- Lesions must have intact skin (i.e., non-ulcerated lesions and no bleeding).<\/li>\n
- The injuries should not be in hair<\/span>-Covered areas.<\/li>\n
- The device should not be used on palms, soles, genitals, eyes or mucous membrane<\/span> zones<\/li>\n
- The lesions must be devoid of scars or recent trauma<\/span>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
