Evaluation of Nevisense as Support Tool for the Diagnose of Keratinocyte Skin Cancer

Evaluation of the Clinical Utility of a New Diagnostic Support Tool, Based on Electrical Impedance Spectroscopy (NEVISENSE), for Keratinocyte Skin Cancer

This is a prospective study to assess efficacy of the Nevisense device in identifying keratinocyte skin cancer (KC) in patients suspected of having skin cancer based on the initial physician's assessment.

All skin lesions with a suspicion of Basal cell carcinoma (BCC), Invasive Squamos cell Carcinoma (iSCC), Bowen's disease (BD) or actinic keratosis (AK) and destined for excision or biopsy for further histopathological analysis will be considered for inclusion in the study.

Inclusion Criteria:

• All male or female patients of any ethnicity, ≥ 18 years with skin lesions of a clinical uncertain diagnosis suspicious for KC (such as BCC, iSCC, BD or AK)

Exclusion Criteria:

• Metastases of recurrent lesions
• Lesion located on acral skin, e.g. sole or palm
• Lesion located on areas of scars, crusts, psoriasis or similar skin conditions
• Lesion on hair-covered areas, e.g. scalp, beards, moustaches
• Lesion located on genitalia
• Lesion located in an area that has been previously biopsied or subjected to any kind of surgical intervention or traumatized
• Lesion located on mucosal surfaces
• Lesion with foreign matter, e.g. tattoo or splinter
• Lesion and / or reference located on acute sunburn
• Skin surface not measurable, e.g. lesion on a stalk
• Skin surface not accessible, e.g. inside ears, under nails
