An advanced imaging technique called Digital Photographic Mole Mapping can help detect new moles and compare changes in existing moles over time. Dr. Gerner uses FotoFinder, a highly accurate computerized mole mapping system that uses high resolution photography and state of the art software to create an image database of all of your moles. Mole mapping helps ensure that no newly developed moles or changes in existing moles miss evaluation.

What is FotoFinder? FotoFinder is the computerized mole mapping system that Dr. Gerner uses to create an accurate set of photos of your moles. The high resolution camera is connected to a computer and transfers all photos directly to the doctor’s database, giving Dr. Gerner the ability to compare your moles with photos from your initial visit and immediately identify new moles or changes to existing moles on your body. An added benefit of FotoFinder is that Dr. Gerner can provide a copy of your photos for self examination at home. All patients, whether first time or returning, can feel safe that any changes or new moles will not be missed.
