During any skin cancer or skin check consultation, your doctor uses the VISIOMED / Canfield D200evo or VEOS systems — a high-resolution digital dermatoscope developed specifically for advanced skin lesion imaging.

In simple terms, this device is a specialised camera for moles and skin spots, offering:

  • 15× to 200× magnification — allowing your doctor to see structural details in the skin that are invisible to the naked eye
  • Standardised lighting using both cross-polarised and non-polarised modes, which reduces glare and enhances pigment and vessel patterns in the lesion
  • A live touch-screen display, so images can be previewed, refined, saved and reviewed instantly during your consultation
  • Clinical and close-up images captured in high resolution for professional, reliable documentation of each spot

All images are integrated into our DermaGraphix® body-mapping software, allowing your doctor to link each close-up image to its exact location on your body and compare images over time if follow-up is needed.

What to expect

  1. High-magnification imaging

    15x to 200x magnification allows your doctor to see structural details in the skin that are invisible to the naked eye.

  2. Cross-polarised and non-polarised lighting

    Standardised lighting in both modes reduces glare and enhances pigment and vessel patterns in the lesion.

  3. Live touch-screen review

    Images can be previewed, refined, saved and reviewed instantly during your consultation.

  4. High-resolution clinical capture

    Clinical and close-up images are captured at high resolution for professional, reliable documentation of each spot.

  5. DermaGraphix® integration

    All images are integrated into our DermaGraphix® body-mapping software, linking each close-up image to its exact body location and allowing comparison over time.

Results timeline

  • During the appointment Images reviewed live on the touch-screen and HD computer monitors with your doctor.
  • Each visit Lesions of interest re-imaged and compared with previous captures stored in DermaGraphix®.

Ideal candidate

  • Anyone having a skin check or targeted spot check at The Skin Doctor.
  • Patients with lesions that need detailed in-clinic imaging and documentation.
  • Patients requiring side-by-side comparison of lesions over time.

Frequently asked questions

  • What is a digital dermatoscope?
    In simple terms, it is a specialised camera for moles and skin spots, offering high magnification, standardised lighting and instant on-screen review of each lesion.
  • Why does magnification matter?
    15x to 200x magnification reveals structural details (pigment patterns, vessels, surface features) that are invisible to the naked eye and that help differentiate benign and concerning lesions.
  • Are my images stored?
    Yes. All images are integrated into our DermaGraphix® body-mapping software, linking each close-up to its exact location on your body so we can compare images at future visits.
