A portable device for providing real-time medical ailment and cancer diagnosis. The portable device captures image information in a particular location for use to diagnose and update prior diagnosis of such medical ailments. The device captures new images, segments the images based on known or existing artificial intelligence, or image processing algorithms to isolate the region of interest from the image, process the region of interest via a learned diagnostic model, and provide output about the region of interest in real time. The output information contains a set of diagnostic probabilities in real time. The device communicates within a platform for receiving the generated information and applying deep learning or machine learning algorithms to update the diagnostic model and to trend data about the image with previous snapshots. The updated learned diagnostic model can then be downloaded to the device for further diagnoses.
