NCT ID NCT07144306
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is testing whether an AI-powered smartphone app (NuvanaDx) can accurately detect skin cancer, including melanoma, by analyzing photos of suspicious moles or lesions. About 100 adults with concerning skin spots will take part. The goal is to see if the app can help catch cancer earlier and reduce wait times for specialist care.
