Larger Human-Submitted Dataset Now Ready for Public Technical Update as Testing Continues
MESA, AZ / ACCESS Newswire / October 20, 2026 / Medical Care Technologies Inc. (OTCID:MDCE) today announced that updated internal evaluation results for MDCE Melanoma Scan Beta will be posted on the Company's corporate website next week.
The results will be available at https://www.medicalcaretechnologies.com.
This update follows the Company's October 8 announcement that volunteer intake remained open and that a next-round evaluation would be published. That sequence now reaches the reporting step. The posting will cover the same three technical layers already under review:
- Image intake and quality scoring - whether new user photographs can be received and separated into usable and held-out samples
- Body-map registration - whether images can be placed on the interactive body map so the same skin area can be found again
- Change-over-time comparison - whether successive images of a mapped area can be organized for visual review
The program has already moved through volunteer intake (September 4), receipt of the first human-submitted datasets (September 16), the start of internal review (September 23), and first-pass results (September 29). The first pass showed that real-world user photographs could move through the three layers. The next-week posting is the expanded readout on the larger set of submissions collected since then.
Until the volunteer phase, model work centered on public dermatology archives, including HAM10000, ISIC Archive collections, and TCIA melanoma cohorts. Human-submitted images add lighting, device type, distance, angle, compression, and everyday image quality that those archives do not fully capture. The upcoming results reflect continued testing against that real-world variability.
"The first pass showed the workflow can run on photographs people actually take," said Marshall Perkins, CEO of Medical Care Technologies. "Next week we post the next readout on the expanded set. Intake remains open because a wider test set strengthens the evaluation."
