Project Abstract

Abstract
Skin cancer is a significant public health concern worldwide, with early detection being crucial for successful treatment outcomes. In recent years, mobile applications have emerged as promising tools for assisting in the early identification of skin cancer lesions. This research project aims to develop a mobile application specifically designed for skin cancer detection, leveraging the capabilities of smartphone technology and artificial intelligence algorithms. The research will be conducted in five main phases. The first phase will involve conducting a comprehensive review of existing literature on skin cancer detection methods, mobile applications, and artificial intelligence technologies. This will provide a solid foundation for understanding the current state of the field and identifying gaps that the proposed mobile application can address. In the second phase, the research will focus on designing and developing the mobile application for skin cancer detection. The application will be programmed to analyze images of skin lesions captured by smartphone cameras and provide users with real-time feedback on the likelihood of the lesion being cancerous. The development process will involve collaboration with dermatologists and experts in artificial intelligence to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the application. The third phase will consist of testing and validating the mobile application through a series of clinical trials and user studies. Participants will be asked to use the application to analyze images of skin lesions and provide feedback on its usability, accuracy, and effectiveness in detecting skin cancer. The results of these trials will be used to refine the application and improve its performance. In the fourth phase, the research will focus on evaluating the real-world impact of the mobile application on skin cancer detection rates. This will involve collaborating with healthcare providers and organizations to deploy the application in clinical settings and assess its effectiveness in assisting healthcare professionals in diagnosing skin cancer at an early stage. Finally, the fifth phase will involve summarizing the research findings, discussing the implications of the study, and providing recommendations for future research and implementation of the mobile application. The research aims to contribute to the growing body of knowledge on the use of mobile technology in healthcare and provide a valuable tool for improving skin cancer detection rates and outcomes. Overall, the development of a mobile application for skin cancer detection has the potential to revolutionize the way skin cancer is diagnosed and managed, offering a convenient and accessible solution for early detection and treatment. This research project aims to make a significant contribution to the field of dermatology and public health by harnessing the power of mobile technology to improve skin cancer care and outcomes.
