I went for a full body MOT and the results came as a shock
Image caption, More than 2,000 images were taken of Ruth's skin I don't mind having my photo taken - triple checked and filtered for Instagram - but 70 cameras pointing at me while I'm down to my knickers is a bit daunting. A robotic voice tells me to stay still and close my eyes as I stand in a huge curved scanner while classical music plays in the background. With a flash of light, 2,000 photographs are taken of my body, in the hope of capturing every mark, freckle and mole to analyse for different skin cancers. This full-body scan is happening at a sci-fi-style clinic in Manchester city centre, with me wearing a dressing gown and hexagon-shaped rubber slippers. The millions of data points collected will create a 3D avatar of my body using AI.
