Spectral Imaging of Melanoma

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
CASTELLO DE LA PLANA, Spain, June 23, 2009 – A new digital analysis system of multispectral images that helps physicians distinguish melanoma from other kinds of skin diseases is in process of being developed. The Computer Vision research group at the Universitat Jaume I (UJI) of Castelló is working with the Hospitals Consortium of Castelló on the research project entitled, “Characterization of melanoma through spectral imaging,” which will be carried out by physicians of the Onconolgy, Surgery and Dermatology Departments of the Castelló Provincial Hospital. The research will be led by surgeon Enrique Boldó and technicians from the...Read full article

    multispectral imaging
    Multispectral imaging is a technique that involves capturing and analyzing images at multiple discrete spectral bands within the electromagnetic spectrum. Unlike hyperspectral imaging, which acquires data across a continuous range of wavelengths, multispectral imaging is characterized by capturing information at several specific, predefined bands. This allows for the extraction of spectral signatures and information from different parts of the spectrum. Key aspects of multispectral imaging...
    photonics
    The technology of generating and harnessing light and other forms of radiant energy whose quantum unit is the photon. The science includes light emission, transmission, deflection, amplification and detection by optical components and instruments, lasers and other light sources, fiber optics, electro-optical instrumentation, related hardware and electronics, and sophisticated systems. The range of applications of photonics extends from energy generation to detection to communications and...
