AI Thread Summary
A pigment network in dermoscopy images refers to a specific pattern of pigmentation observed in skin lesions, often associated with melanocytic lesions. This network can indicate the presence of melanoma or other skin cancers, making it crucial for diagnosis. Dermoscopy is a non-invasive technique that enhances the visualization of skin structures and patterns, aiding in the assessment of skin conditions. Understanding pigment networks is essential for dermatologists to differentiate between benign and malignant lesions effectively. The discussion highlights the importance of this feature in skin cancer detection and monitoring.

hi all,

So here I am reading a paper "A System for the Detection of Pigment Network in
Dermoscopy Images". I want to ask what actually is a pigment network?

thanks

This is more of a Medical Sciences question, isn't it? Demoscopy is a technique used to track the changes in skin cancer:

Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'
I recently made a basic simulation of wire antennas and I am not sure if the near field in my simulation is modeled correctly. One of the things that worry me is the fact that sometimes I see in my simulation "movements" in the near field that seems to be faster than the speed of wave propagation I defined (the speed of light in the simulation). Specifically I see "nodes" of low amplitude in the E field that are quickly "emitted" from the antenna and then slow down as they approach the far...
Hello dear reader, a brief introduction: Some 4 years ago someone started developing health related issues, apparently due to exposure to RF & ELF related frequencies and/or fields (Magnetic). This is currently becoming known as EHS. (Electromagnetic hypersensitivity is a claimed sensitivity to electromagnetic fields, to which adverse symptoms are attributed.) She experiences a deep burning sensation throughout her entire body, leaving her in pain and exhausted after a pulse has occurred...
