Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Devices - Molemap Skin Cancer Triage Artificial Intelligence Device

No intervention: Lead-in phase - During the lead-in phase treating clinicians will not be given the Molemap artificial intelligence diagnosis in real-time (i.e. in clinic with the patient).

Active comparator: Active phase - During the active phase treating clinicians will be given the Molemap artificial intelligence diagnosis in real-time.


Treatment: Devices: Molemap Skin Cancer Triage Artificial Intelligence Device
This device/software incorporates artificial intelligence to provide a diagnostic aide for clinicians of patients with potentially malignant skin lesions. The software is supported by the use of cameras for acquisition of images.
