					<description>MM, I am a curator for an art/culture/science exhibition going on at Columbia College Chicago in March 2007.  We would love to show this project as part of the exhibition. You can read more about the show at www.diychicago.org.  If interested please get in touch.  Many thanks.</description>

					<description>The spectrum emitted by an LED is 25-50 nm wide.  This is much narrower than the 150-200 nm bandwidth of the cones in the eye.  I think the color filters in a color camera also have a relatively wide bandwidth, like the eye.  So the LEDs offer a few times higher spectral resolution than is possible with white light alone, (short of using a spectrometer).

Also, there are a lot of combinations between 4 (or more) LED colors, and the RGB camera filters.  
4! * 3! = 24 * 6 = 144 (note not all are useful)                                 Simple software can process the pixel data arithmetically (yielding more color combinations), thus enhancing the resolution even further.

					<description>Personally me, I cannot define melanoma or other types of lesions. My method is only showing the relative distribution of pigments in skin layers. Presence of melanin in dermis doesn't show that it is melanoma or Spindle Cell nevus or Spitz nevi. There are so many factors who define lesion type: melanin spreading shape inside dermis, blood behavior inside lesion and around it, the thickness of collagen layer in papillary dermis. As i don't have qualification for this, I just can do a math and nothing more. And it needs much More investigations to be done to use this method of visualisation. This tool i made just can be a tool to dermatologist to see more inside the structure of formation of lesions, but it doesn't show is it a melanoma or other type of formation. Very good question. Thank you.</description>

					<description>um, it already exists and has for quite some time:

http://www.dermlite.com/dl2ms.html

And how do you DEFINE melanoma?  What about atypical nevi?  What about Spitz nevi?  What about Pigmented Spindle Cell nevus of Reed?  Can it tell these apart?  Lentigo Maligna? What about amelanotic melanoma?  Tell me what you MEAN by melanoma.</description>

					<description>/*What is the mcd output of the LEDs you used?*/
I was using relative values, I did not tie to absolute I can only provide manufacturers characteristics of leds.</description>
