Monitoring patients at risk for melanoma: May convolutional neural networks replace the strategy of sequential digital dermoscopy?

Sequential digital dermoscopy (SDD) is applied for early melanoma detection by uncovering dynamic changes of monitored lesions. Convolutional neural networks (CNN) are capable of high diagnostic accuracies similar to trained dermatologists.
