SHOWING SKIN LESION INFORMATION
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method comprisingshowing simultaneously, on a two-dimensional electronic display, views of a human model that together represent all of the skin of a corresponding real human,presenting sex-related visible characteristics of the model in a manner that can represent a real human of either sex, andvisibly marking on the views of the surface of the human model the locations of skin lesions on the corresponding real human for which digital image scans are available.

Abstract
Among other things, on a two-dimensional electronic display, a representation is shown of a scanned image of a lesion on the skin of a real human. On the two-dimensional electronic display, a recommendation is indicated of a next diagnostic or treatment step to be taken, based on a computer-implemented analysis of the scanned image.

1. A computer-implemented method comprising
showing simultaneously, on a two-dimensional electronic display, views of a human model that together represent all of the skin of a corresponding real human, presenting sex-related visible characteristics of the model in a manner that can represent a real human of either sex, and visibly marking on the views of the surface of the human model the locations of skin lesions on the corresponding real human for which digital image scans are available.
-
9. A computer-implemented method comprising
showing simultaneously, on a two-dimensional electronic display, available views of a surface of a human model, the views representing skin of a corresponding real human that may bear skin lesions for which digital image scans are available, and automatically not showing at least some available views for which the corresponding human does not bear skin lesions for which digital image scans are available.
-
13. A computer-implemented method comprising
showing, on a two-dimensional electronic display, a scanned image of a lesion on the skin of a real human, the scanned image representing only light within a limited wavelength band that is narrower than a full band of visible or infrared light.
-
17. A computer-implemented method comprising
showing, on a two-dimensional electronic display, a scanned image of a skin lesion on the skin of a real human and an indication of a result of a computer-implemented analysis of the scanned image of the skin lesion, and visibly identifying on the shown image, visible elements that were not considered in the computer-implemented analysis of the skin lesion.
-
22. A computer-implemented method comprising
showing, on a two-dimensional electronic display, a representation of a scanned image of a lesion on the skin of a real human, and indicating, on the two-dimensional electronic display, a recommendation of a next diagnostic or treatment step to be taken, based on a computer-implemented analysis of the scanned image.
-
29. A computer-implemented method comprising
enabling a user of a skin lesion scanning device to perform no more than a predetermined amount of fee-bearing scanning of skin lesions on an identified human, and showing, on a two-dimensional electronic display, a status of actual fee-bearing scanning relative to the predetermined amount.
-
33. A computer-implemented method comprising
enabling a user of a skin lesion scanning device to perform scans using the device only when the device operates within specified tolerances, and showing, on a two-dimensional electronic display, how imminently a performance of the device needs to be checked.
-
34. A computer-implemented method comprising
showing simultaneously, on a two-dimensional electronic display, (a) at least a partial body view of a surface of the human model on which a location of a skin lesion on a corresponding real human has been indicated, and (b) an enlarged view of a lesion on a portion of the skin of a real human that corresponds to the partial body view of the human model, and automatically updating each of the views in response to user interaction with the other view, to keep the views synchronized.
-
40. A computer-implemented method comprising
showing, on a two-dimensional electronic display, at least one view of a surface of a human model and indications of skin lesions on the skin of a real human corresponding to the shown view of the human model, and showing legends, for the respective skin lesions, each indicating a status of a corresponding skin lesion and a status of a scanned image of the skin lesion.
-
46. A computer-implemented method comprising
showing, on a two-dimensional electronic display, a navigable set of thumbnails of body views of a human model, each thumbnail representing a single scan of a lesion on the skin of a corresponding real human, and in response to a user invoking any one of the thumbnails, automatically displaying a larger image of the corresponding scan of the lesion separately from the thumbnail.
-
48. A method comprising
showing, on a two-dimensional electronic display, an image of a single scan of an area on the skin of a real human, and indicating a presence of two or more skin lesions within the single scan.
