Definition
An electrical impedance spectrometer is a prescription device that measures and analyzes electrical impedance properties of a skin lesion. The device is intended for use by a physician trained in the clinical diagnosis and management of skin cancer as an adjunctive device following identification of a suspicious skin lesion. The output given by the device is intended to be used in combination with clinical and historical signs of skin cancer to obtain additional information prior to a decision to biopsy. It is not for use as a standalone diagnostic and is not for use to confirm a clinical diagnosis Please reference https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2026/03/25/2026-05772/general-and-plastic-surgery-devices-reclassification-of-optical-diagnostic-devices-for-melanoma.
