Emerald Medical Applications Corp. (OTCQB: MRLA) ("Emerald" or the "Company"), the Israeli-based company engaged in the development and sale of DermaCompare™, its proprietary artificial intelligence technology and application for the early diagnosis of melanoma and other skin cancers, today announced that Dr. Perry Robins has joined the Company's Medical Advisory Board.

He has performed more than 47,000 Mohs surgical procedures, and trained doctors from around the world. He is also the Founder and President of The Skin Cancer Foundation, an international organization dedicated to skin cancer awareness, research, and public and medical education.

In addition to his work as a surgeon and at his foundation, Dr. Robins continues to be extremely active in other aspects of his field, including:

  • Founder-President of the International Society for Dermatologic Surgery;
  • Founder and former President of the American College of Mohs Micrographic Surgery;
  • Former President of the American Society of Dermatologic Surgery;
  • Honorary Fellow at the American Academy of Dermatology for outstanding contributions in dermatology;

Commenting on the appointment, Lior Wayn, CEO of Emerald, said, "This is such a significant appointment for us. Dr. Robins is known around the world for his contributions to the field of dermatology, in particular the treatment of skin cancer where his dedication to patients and commitment to education have benefited millions of patients. His experience, insight and expertise will be invaluable as we work to commercialize our DermaCompare technology."

Dr. Robins went on to say, "I am very excited to join Emerald. I have dedicated a large portion of my long career in dermatology to the treatment of skin cancers, but I have never seen anything like DermaCompare. I believe their ability to combine the power of artificial intelligence with the utility of a mobile app will revolutionize the way we detect and diagnose melanoma, and I look forward to working with the company on this endeavor."

Emerald Medical Applications is an Israeli-based medical technology company that utilizes proprietary military image processing technology and state of the art data analytics to improve the analysis of medical images. Emerald's flagship solution, DermaCompare™, is an FDA Class #1 approved, HIPPA-compliant, skin cancer (melanoma) screening platform that enables physicians to identify and monitor changes in their patients' skin health, specifically the early detection of cancerous moles and skin anomalies.

The DermaCompare™ patient application is available in Mac or Android based platforms and works using virtually any digital camera, including cell phones, iPads, tablets and other similar devices, to take Total Body Photography ("TBP") images and, in real-time, transmit these images for dermatological evaluation and identification of suspicious moles, lesions and other skin conditions. These images are then compared using Emerald's cloud database, as well as the patient's previous Total Body Photography images, which will dramatically enhance a physician's ability to detect Melanoma earlier, more accurately and more efficiently than other means of diagnosis.
