As it is, that the most important part of successful disease treatment is early diagnosis, it was chosen to write this work about skin lesion diagnosis improvement by fusing ultrasonic and optical diagnostic methods, to measure all critical skin lesion parameters for most accurate and fast diagnosis. It was analysed and researched what the most common methods of skin lesion diagnosis are and what are the issues of these methods. With this knowledge it was proved, that method fusion is the right way to improve skin lesion diagnostic measurements of skin lesions.
