The image is then processed by Helfie’s deep learning algorithms, trained on thousands of dermatological cases, to detect and classify the lesion into low, medium, or high risk.

Skin Spot AI - The Facts
Skin Spots
In Brief
Skin cancer is the most common type of cancer globally, with an estimated 9.9 million new cases diagnosed each year – and unfortunately many millions more are left undiagnosed. The three main types of skin cancer are basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and melanoma. Melanoma is the least common but most dangerous type, accounting for the majority of skin cancer deaths. The incidence of skin cancer is increasing worldwide, with rates up to three times higher than they were in the 1980s in some countries. Risk factors for skin cancer include exposure to UV radiation from the sun or tanning beds, fair skin, a family history of skin cancer, and a weakened immune system. Skin cancer is highly curable when detected and treated early, but can be deadly if left untreated or diagnosed at an advanced stage.
Why Check?
Regular checking for skin cancer is important because early detection is key to successful treatment. Skin cancer is the most common type of cancer, and it can occur in people of all ages and skin types. Checking for skin cancer involves checking your skin for any suspicious moles, growths, or spots that could indicate the presence of cancer. Early detection allows for treatment before the cancer has a chance to spread to other parts of the body, which can greatly improve the chances of successful treatment. Detecting skin cancer early is crucial because it is highly curable when caught in its early stages.
