The automated total body mapping (ATBM) from Fotofinder® is an innovative method for early skin cancer detection that photographs the entire skin surface in just a few minutes. After the initial documentation, AI (artificial intelligence) analyzes all areas of the skin that show abnormalities and classifies them. These areas are then thoroughly examined and evaluated by our experienced medical team. This gives you the benefit of double security: state-of-the-art technology and many years of dermatological experience.
At your next preventive care appointment, these images can be compared with the previous images with millimeter precision using AI and examined specifically by our dermatologists. This makes even the smallest changes in moles or new lesions visible. For you, this means complete documentation, maximum precision, and even more safety in skin cancer prevention.
Even though the classic examination with a reflected light microscope is very thorough, it only provides a snapshot. Changes cannot therefore be detected. Videoscopy (digital microscopic individual images) provides us with this information, but only for moles that are already under observation. ATBM also detects new or previously inconspicuous pigment changes. Combining these methods achieves the greatest possible certainty for the early detection of skin cancer. This is our area of expertise.
How does AI-supported ATBM work?
Automated Total Body Mapping (ATBM) is quick and easy for you as a patient. At our dermatology practice in Kronberg, we carry out the following steps:
- Body mapping (full-body scan) with AI
- Microscopic detailed images (noticeable skin areas) with AI
- Personalized, thorough skin cancer screening by experienced dermatologists after evaluation of the body mapping and individual images, with recommendations.
Triple benefits for our patients
- The best method for diagnosis remains reflected light microscopy by a dermatologist. This is the only way to reliably detect skin cancer and its precursors.
- Body mapping with AI ensures that changes are not overlooked and that the doctor can specifically assess all relevant areas.
- The AI in the microimages creates a risk profile and serves as an initial assessment of critical structures and an additional decision-making aid for the physician.
With this modern technology, we offer our patients an optimal combination of technical progress and medical expertise, making your skin cancer screening even safer.
What are the advantages of ATBM for our patients?
Automated Total Body Mapping (ATBM) with AI support offers you, as a patient at our practice in Kronberg near Frankfurt, decisive advantages:
- Early detection of changes
Even the smallest differences or new moles that have developed between two check-ups are made visible. - Complete documentation
Your entire skin surface is photographed – nothing is overlooked. Microimages can be located precisely on the full-body images, just like on a map. - Targeted medical examination
The AI marks conspicuous areas so that our dermatologists can examine them thoroughly and specifically using reflected light microscopy. - Safety for patients with many moles
Patients with numerous moles or a family history of skin cancer benefit particularly from systematic documentation. - Fast, painless, radiation-free
The examination takes only a few minutes, is non-invasive, and completely painless. - Trust through dual expertise
Technology and artificial intelligence provide support – the final assessment is always made by an experienced dermatologist.
