Abstract
Skin cancer is the most common among all cancers and its early diagnosis increases the patient’s chances of healing. One of the ways to make this diagnosis is through dermatoscopy. Dermatoscopy is a technique that consists of recognizing structures present in the skin, not visible to the naked eye. Therefore, for assisting the use of dermatoscopy by health professionals, this work presents a device to support skin cancer recognition using the histogram of oriented gradients and machine learning, based on the ABCDE rule.
