A guide to understanding your My MoleMap report

My MoleMap is our per­son­alised patient web­site app, where you can man­age all of your MoleMap info in one spot, includ­ing view­ing your clin­i­cal reports, and mak­ing or chang­ing bookings. 

The main fea­tures include: 

  • At-a-glance view­ing: view all your MoleMap clin­i­cal reports in all one place on your per­son­al, con­fi­den­tial web­site page.
  • Know your next steps: instant­ly see which moles or lesions require action, such as fur­ther mon­i­tor­ing or sur­gi­cal removal. Moles and lesions are grouped by the action required, with the high­est pri­or­i­ty items list­ed first on your report. 
  • See your MoleMap body shots: Access high-def­i­n­i­tion body shots and close-up images tak­en dur­ing your last visit. 
  • Print or down­load: It’s easy to down­load or print out your report if you wish to. 
  • Eas­i­er to under­stand: We’ve sim­pli­fied our lan­guage and includ­ed a glos­sary of terms should you need it. 

Like all new tech­nol­o­gy, find­ing your way around your My MoleMap app can take a bit of fig­ur­ing out, so we’ve com­piled a sim­ple step-by-step guide to help you through it.

Step 1: Sign in

Click here to sign up to your per­son­al My MoleMap app – sim­ply include the email you want to use and cre­ate a per­son­alised pass­word (don’t for­get to keep it in a safe place). 

Step 2: View your report

Your My MoleMap page should look like the example below. If you’ve recent­ly had an appoint­ment with us – and been noti­fied that your report is ready to view – you should be able to see the wording ​‘View Report’ to the right of the page.

Hello patient

Above: To see your report, click on ​‘View Report’ to the right. You can also click ​‘Reports’ in the menu to access all of your reports.

Step 3: Check your next steps

Once you’ve clicked on ​‘View Report’, you should see a page like this – as you can see, moles and lesions have been grouped by the action required. Click on view details to see your next steps.

Your report

Above: The Your Report page pro­vides an overview of your diag­no­sis

Step 4: View your actions for each mole/​lesion

If you click on ‘view details’ a drop down box will open up with a break­down of the next steps need­ed – which could range from hav­ing the mole excised (sur­gi­cal­ly removed) to check­ing it again in 3, 6 or 12 months. 

Immediate treatment required

If there are no actions required, that’s great news! Keep mon­i­tor­ing your moles your­self reg­u­lar­ly and book your next appoint­ment in 12 or 24 months as advised by your MoleMap Melanographer.

You can view a sum­ma­ry of all pos­si­ble actions at the bot­tom of this page.

Step 5: View your images 

If you click on the ​‘clinical images’ tab, you can see your con­fi­den­tial body shots and close-up images from your appoint­ment. You can use the close-up images to self-check for any changes in your moles or lesions between appointments.
