MDCE Maps Moles Across Sessions. The Beta Works. It Does Not Diagnose Anything.
Medical Care Technologies Inc. (OTCID: MDCE) reported first-pass results for its Melanoma Scan Beta, an AI-assisted imaging app that catalogs visible skin photos and compares the same mapped area across repeat sessions. The results validate the workflow, not diagnostic accuracy. The platform has no regulatory clearance and cannot diagnose, treat, or cure anything. Further evaluation passes will follow as volunteer images accumulate.
This illustrates a concept I like to call longitudinal body mapping. The mental model is simple: a single snapshot tells you little, but a structured series of snapshots compared across time reveals change. Change is the signal that matters in dermatology. The mechanism here is spatial registration, matching the same anatomical region between sessions so a user or clinician can see whether a lesion has evolved. The principle extends well beyond skin: any monitoring problem benefits from consistent capture, structured comparison, and a refusal to overclaim what the tool actually does.

- Open your phone's camera and photograph a mole or skin mark you want to track. Use consistent lighting and distance. Save the photo with a date in the filename. Expected outcome: a baseline image you can revisit.
- Create a simple folder structure on your device, one folder per body region, and file the photo accordingly. Expected outcome: an organized catalog that approximates what MDCE's app attempts automatically.
- Set a monthly calendar reminder to retake the photo from the same angle and distance. Place new images in the same folder. Expected outcome: a longitudinal series you can scroll through to spot visual changes over time. This is not diagnosis. It is organized observation.
