Development of a Mobile Application for Skin Cancer Detection and Monitoring

Project Abstract

Skin cancer is one of the most prevalent types of cancer worldwide, and early detection plays a crucial role in successful treatment outcomes. The development of a mobile application for skin cancer detection and monitoring presents a promising solution to empower individuals to monitor their skin health conveniently. This research project focuses on designing and implementing a user-friendly mobile application that utilizes image recognition technology to assist users in identifying potential skin cancer lesions and monitoring changes over time. The application aims to enhance early detection, promote self-screening practices, and increase awareness about skin cancer.
