- Lesion is greater than 15mm in diameter at the widest point.
- Lesion has a targeted area less than 2.5mm in diameter where the DermaSensor device tip cannot be placed entirely within the border of the targeted area of the lesion.
- Lesion has no contiguous area of at least 2.5mm due to ulceration, erosion or liquid discharge (e.g., blood).
- Lesion is covered by a crust or scale, and lesion surface cannot be cleared of crust or scale such that there is a contiguous area of at least 2.5mm of cleared intact skin that is free of any crust, ulceration, erosion or liquid discharge (e.g., blood).
- Lesion is obstructed by foreign matter that cannot be non-invasively removed (e.g., tattoo, splinter, etc.)
