Abstract

Some algorithms to synthesize static images of melanocytic skin lesions are briefly outlined. The key approach in the elaborated synthesis methodology of images is a semantic conversion of textual description of melanocytic skin lesions - by an inhouse developed system - into hybrid (vector-raster) images. It was found, that the developed methodology can be successfully used in the process of teaching of dermatology students and also in training of preferred medical doctors.
