4. Precautions for measurement
1. If there is any opening between the target and measuring head, light leaks in from the opening, resulting in
a lower Melanin value.
To prevent measurement errors, ensure complete contact of the measuring head as much as possible.
2. Be careful because pressing the measuring head too hard against the skin may cause congestion in the skin.
3. Naevi (moles) in the dermis (blue naevus, naevus of Ota, etc.) cannot be measured.
4. Do not perform measurement with the specimen measuring port directed towards your eyes and closed
eyelids.
