Using computer models, the thermal signature is used to determine the size and shape of the lesions in question. In particular, this study seeks to add quantification analysis of high resolution thermal images of melanoma lesions to provide accurate early diagnostic capability with specific detail regarding size, shape and depth of the lesions. This information will be compared to biopsy results and surgical resection results.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['CHILD', 'ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '80 Years', 'minimumAge': '10 Years', 'samplingMethod': 'NON_PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': 'The subject population will be identified in the Department of Dermatology Pigmented Lesion Clinic at the Johns Hopkins Hospital Outpatient Center.
