To use technology, it is necessary to tell Alice: "Start skill "Check a birthmark"". The assistant will suggest to begin self-diagnostics during which will ask about symmetry, flatness of edges, uniformity of color, diameter and changes of a birthmark. On the basis of answers Alice will draw a conclusion on whether it enters into risk group.

If the answer is positive, then Alice will suggest to register in the free test for a melanoma within the Live without Fear project or in appointment.

The new skill for Alice was created on the open platform " Yandex.dialogs " which is available to all developers.
