Most skin cancers—especially melanoma and squamous cell carcinoma—present higher risks when left untreated for an extended period. However, skin cancer diagnosis is a time-consuming process that almost always takes over a week to confirm. Thanks to the development of Speclipse Spectra-Scope®, a nearly instantaneous skin cancer diagnosis is now workable for physicians.
Spectra-Scope® is quick, safe and easy to use. To evaluate the degree of atypia in a lesion, measurements are performed on a reference area close to the lesion, as well as on the lesion itself. The procedure takes only a second, and the LIPS score and the corresponding clinical predictive value of the lesion are displayed within a few seconds.

Spectra-Scope’s® diagnostic accuracy has been proven by worldwide clinical studies
in the United States and Australia.
A series of clinical studies were used to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of Spectra-Scope®.
A deep learning-based algorithm was used to create a robust database of information, leading to ground-breaking accuracy in both sensitivity and specificity.
The identification of skin cancers (BCC, SCC and malignant melanoma) vs. benign lesions were accurately diagnosed with 97.6% sensitivity and 86.2% specificity.
Lesions that are secondarily verified by Spectra-Scope® have a higher chance of being correctly diagnosed as positive through biopsy.
The detailed visual examination of challenging lesions to determine diagnosis and treatment is time consuming. Spectra-Scope® can scan these lesions and provide verification in a matter of seconds without compromising clinical accuracy.
Challenging lesions can be verified by Spectra-Scope® before being sent for biopsy, avoiding unnecessary biopsies of benign lesions.
