How SkinScreener was created
Inspired by the Star Trek movies, dermatologist Michael Tripolt wanted to develop a device that could detect diseases without contact, just like in the movies, and thus alleviate and prevent human suffering.
The desire for such an innovation grew with the increase in skin cancer patients. He knew that if they could treat skin cancer in its early stages, he could help people much better and the chance of cure would be higher.
Artificial intelligence for early detection of skin cancer now available to everyone
It quickly became clear that artificial intelligence could be best used to detect malignant skin lesions. The only problem was to make the technology accessible and easy to use for everyone. After long research, it was possible to package this innovative technology in a cell phone app for the first time, and with an accuracy of 95%, as was shown in a study with Med Uni Graz.
The SkinScreener app was thus born, bringing Dr. Tripolt closer to his goal of providing everyone with a tool for early detection of skin cancer.
Our vision and mission
Our vision is a world without skin cancer deaths due to early detection.
Our goal is to develop an innovative and powerful AI technology for skin cancer detection that has the potential to save lives. Our goal is to create health through global availability, because we believe that a good and healthy life does not have to depend on income, but should be equally accessible to all.
We are SkinScreener
Our team is constantly working on improving and optimizing the SkinScreener app. Thanks to our young and energetic team of experts, consisting of physicians and technicians, a certified medical product for the early detection of skin cancer was launched on the market throughout Europe. This important milestone was reached early on because everyone in the team is pulling in the same direction with their individual strengths.
Our work is based on empirical medical evidence and is supported by senior dermatologists. We aim not only to comply with the stringent requirements of the Medical Devices Act, but also to exceed them.
