The Company [Abstract]  
Liquidity
Liquidity
As of September 30, 2015, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $206,647 and has incurred losses since inception. To date, the Company has dedicated most of its financial resources to research and development, sales and marketing, and general and administrative expenses.
The Company has experienced recurring losses and negative cash flow from operations. The Company has been dependent on raising capital from the sale of securities in order to continue to operate and to meet its obligations in the ordinary course of business. The Company plans to refinance the Notes that became due October 30, 2015 with longer term debt, the terms and availability of which the Company cannot determine at this time. The Company is currently evaluation alternatives, including discussions with lenders, to refinance this debt. The timing and availability of any such refinancing cannot be assured and will be affected by numerous factors, many of which are not under our control. There can be no assurance that we will be able to raise additional funding as may be needed or on terms that are acceptable to the Company. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company has not made any adjustments to its condensed consolidated financial statements with respect to this uncertainty.
Accounting Principles
Accounting Principles
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 ("fiscal 2014"). The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") related to interim financial statements. As permitted under those rules, certain information and footnote disclosures normally required or included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("U.S. GAAP") have been condensed or omitted. The financial information contained herein is unaudited; however, management believes all adjustments have been made that are considered necessary to present fairly the results of the Company's financial position and operating results for the interim periods. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.
The results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2015 or for any other interim period or for any future period.
Principles of Consolidation
Principles of Consolidation
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Reclassification
Reclassification
Certain reclassifications from the prior year presentation have been made to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications did not have material impact on the Company's equity, net assets, results of operations or cash flows.
Use of Estimates
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the US requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates and be based on events different from those assumptions. As of September 30, 2015, the more significant estimates include (1) revenue recognition, including deferred revenues and valuation allowances of accounts receivable, (2) valuation of intangible assets, (3) warrant liabilities, (4) stock-based compensation and (5) the valuation allowance related to deferred tax assets.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenues from product sales when the following four criteria have been met: (i) the product has been delivered and the Company has no significant remaining obligations; (ii) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (iii) the price to the buyer is fixed or determinable; and (iv) collection is reasonably assured. Revenues from product sales are recorded net of provisions for expected returns and cash discounts.
The Company ships most of its products FOB shipping point, although from time to time certain customers, for example governmental customers, will be granted FOB destination terms. Among the factors the Company takes into account when determining the proper time at which to recognize revenue are (i) when title to the goods transfers and (ii) when the risk of loss transfers. Shipments to distributors or physicians that do not fully satisfy the collection criteria are recognized when invoiced amounts are fully paid or fully assured and included in deferred revenues until that time.
For revenue arrangements with multiple deliverables within a single, contractually binding arrangement (usually sales of products with separately priced extended warranty), each element of the contract is accounted for as a separate unit of accounting when it provides the customer value on a stand-alone basis and there is objective evidence of the fair value of the related unit.
The Company has two distribution channels for its phototherapy treatment equipment. The Company either (i) places its lasers in a physician's office (at no charge to the physician), and generally charges the physician a fee for an agreed upon number of treatments or (ii) sells its lasers through a distributor or directly to a physician. In some cases, the Company and the customer stipulate to a quarterly or other periodic target of procedures to be performed, and accordingly revenue is recognized ratably over the period.
When the Company places a laser in a physician's office, it generally recognizes revenue based on the number of patient treatments performed, or purchased under a periodic commitment, by the physician. Amounts collected with respect to treatments to be performed through laser-access codes that are sold to physicians free of a periodic commitment, but not yet used, are deferred and recognized as a liability until the physician performs the treatment. Unused treatments remain an obligation of the Company because the treatments can only be performed on Company-owned equipment. Once the treatments are performed, this obligation has been satisfied.
The Company defers substantially all revenue from sales of treatment codes ordered by its customers within the last two weeks of the period in determining the amount of procedures performed by its physician-customers. Management believes this approach closely approximates the actual amount of unused treatments that existed at the end of a period.
Deferred revenue includes amounts received with respect to extended warranty maintenance, repairs and other billable services and amounts not yet recognized as revenues. Revenues with respect to such activities are deferred and recognized on a straight-line basis over the duration of the warranty period, the service period or when service is provided, as applicable to each service.
Inventories
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined to be purchased cost for raw materials and the production cost (materials, labor and indirect manufacturing cost, including sub-contracted work components) for work-in-process and finished goods. For the Company's products, cost is determined on the first-in, first-out method. Throughout the laser manufacturing process, the related production costs are recorded within inventory. Work-in-process is immaterial, given the typically short manufacturing cycle, and therefore is disclosed in conjunction with raw materials.
The Company's equipment for the treatment of skin disorders (e.g. the XTRAC) will either (i) be placed in a physician's office and remain the property of the Company (at which date such equipment is transferred to property and equipment) or (ii) be sold to distributors or physicians directly. The cost to build a laser, whether for sale or for placement, is accumulated in inventory.
Reserves for slow moving and obsolete inventories are provided based on historical experience and product demand. Management evaluates the adequacy of these reserves periodically based on forecasted sales and market trends. As of September 30, 2015 reserves on inventory were $0.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company recorded a write-down of $4,818 towards the remaining inventory value of the MelaFind® systems, raw materials and components
Property, Equipment and Depreciation
Property, Equipment and Depreciation
Property and equipment are recorded at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Excimer lasers-in-service are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of five years. For other property and equipment, depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets, primarily three to seven years for computer hardware and software, furniture and fixtures, and machinery and equipment. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the useful lives or lease terms. Expenditures for major renewals and betterments to property and equipment are capitalized, while expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged as an expense as incurred. Upon retirement or disposition, the applicable property amounts are deducted from the accounts and any gain or loss is recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. Useful lives are determined based upon an estimate of either physical or economic obsolescence or both.
Management evaluates the realizability of property and equipment based on estimates of undiscounted future cash flows over the remaining useful life of the asset. If the amount of such estimated undiscounted future cash flows is less than the net book value of the asset, the asset is written down to fair value. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company recorded a write-down of $920 on the remaining net book value of the MELAFind systems that were part of property and equipment (see Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Intangibles).
Patent Costs and Licensed Technologies
Patent Costs and Licensed Technologies
Costs incurred to obtain or defend patents and licensed technologies are capitalized and amortized over the shorter of the remaining estimated useful lives or eight to 12 years. Core technology and product technology were recorded in connection with the asset purchase on June 22, 2015 and are being amortized on a straight-line basis over ten years for core technology and five years for product technology. (See Note 5, Patent and Licensed Technologies).
Management evaluates the recoverability of intangible assets based on estimates of undiscounted future cash flows over the remaining useful life of the asset. If the amount of such estimated undiscounted future cash flows is less than the net book value of the asset, the asset is written down to fair value. As of September 30, 2015, no such write-down was required. (See Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Intangibles).
Other Intangible Assets
Other Intangible Assets
Other intangible assets were recorded in connection with the asset purchase on June 22, 2015. The assets that were determined to have definite useful lives are being amortized on a straight-line basis over ten years. Such assets primarily include customer relationships and trademarks. (See Note 7, Other Intangible Assets).
Management evaluates the recoverability of such other intangible assets based on estimates of undiscounted future cash flows over the remaining useful life of the asset. If the amount of such estimated undiscounted future cash flows is less than the net book value of the asset, the asset is written down to fair value. As of September 30, 2015 no such write-down was required. (See Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Intangibles).
Accounting for the Impairment of Goodwill
Accounting for the Impairment of Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired in a business combination. The Company evaluates the carrying value of goodwill annually at the end of the calendar year and also between annual evaluations if events occur or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the reporting unit to which goodwill was allocated to below its carrying amount. Such circumstances could include, but are not limited to: (1) a significant adverse change in legal factors or in business climate, (2) unanticipated competition, or (3) an adverse action or assessment by a regulator. When evaluating goodwill for impairment, we may first perform an assessment qualitatively whether it is more likely than not that a reporting unit's carrying amount exceeds its fair value, referred to as a "step zero" approach. If, based on the review of the qualitative factors, we determine it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, we would bypass the two-step impairment test.  If we conclude that it is more likely than not that a reporting unit's fair value is less than its carrying amount, we would perform the first step ("step one") of the two-step impairment test.  Step 1 compares the fair value of the Group's reporting units to which goodwill was allocated to their carrying values. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, no further analysis is necessary. The reporting unit fair value is based upon consideration of various valuation methodologies, including guideline transaction multiples, multiples of current earnings, and projected future cash flows discounted at rates commensurate with the risk involved. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, Step 2 must be completed to quantify the amount of impairment. Step 2 calculates the implied fair value of goodwill by deducting the fair value of all tangible and intangible assets, excluding goodwill, of the reporting unit, from the fair value of the reporting unit as determined in Step 1. The implied fair value of goodwill determined in this step is compared to the carrying value of goodwill. If the implied fair value of goodwill is less than the carrying value of goodwill, an impairment loss, equal to the difference, is recognized.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Intangibles
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Intangibles
Long-lived assets, such as property and equipment, and definite-lived intangibles subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the undiscounted cash flows attributable to the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its undiscounted cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized in the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value of the asset. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015 the Company recorded a write-down of $920 on the remaining net book value of the MelaFind systems that were part of property and equipment. Assets to be disposed of are separately presented in the balance sheet and reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell, and are no longer depreciated. The assets and liabilities of a disposed group classified as discontinued operations are presented separately in the appropriate asset and liability sections of the balance sheet.
Functional Currency
Functional Currency
The currency of the primary economic environment in which the operations of the Company are conducted is the US dollar ("$" or "dollars"). Thus, the functional currency of the Company is the dollar except the operations of its foreign subsidiary, which is conducted in its local currency the Indian Rupee (INR). Substantially all of the Company's revenues are derived in dollars or in other currencies linked to the dollar. Purchases of most materials and components are carried out in, or linked to the dollar.
Balances denominated in, or linked to, foreign currencies are stated on the basis of the exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date. For foreign currency transactions included in the statement of comprehensive income (loss), the exchange rates applicable to the relevant transaction dates are used. Transaction gains or losses arising from changes in the exchange rates used in the translation of such balances are carried to financing income or expenses.
Assets and liabilities of the foreign subsidiary, whose functional currency is its local currency, are translated from its functional currency to U.S. dollars at the balance sheet date exchange rate. Income and expense items are translated at the average rate of exchange prevailing during the year. Translation adjustments are reflected in the consolidated balance sheets as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).
Fair Value Measurements
Fair Value Measurements
The Company measures and discloses fair value in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ("ASC Topic 820"). ASC Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework and gives guidance regarding the methods used for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions there exists a three-tier fair-value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
 
Level 1 – unadjusted quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access as of the measurement date.
 
Level 2 – pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets that are directly observable for the asset or liability or indirectly observable through corroboration with observable market data.
 
Level 3 – pricing inputs are unobservable for the non-financial asset or liability and only used when there is little, if any, market activity for the non-financial asset or liability at the measurement date. The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation. Fair value is determined using comparable market transactions and other valuation methodologies, adjusted as appropriate for liquidity, credit, market and/or other risk factors

This hierarchy requires the Company to use observable market data, when available, and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs when determining fair value.
The Company's recurring fair value measurements at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 are as follows:

The fair value of cash and cash equivalents and short term bank deposits are based on their respective demand value, which are equal to the carrying value. The fair value of derivative warrant liabilities is estimated using option pricing models that are based on the individual characteristics of the Company's warrants, preferred and common stock, the derivative warrant liability on the valuation date as well as assumptions for volatility, remaining expected life, risk-free interest rate and, in some cases, credit spread. The derivative warrant liabilities are the only recurring Level 3 fair value measures. The carrying value of all other short-term monetary assets and liabilities is estimated to be approximate to their fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The fair value of the senior secured convertible debentures approximates its carrying value at September 30, 2015 due to the recent issuances of these instruments.
Several of the warrants have non-standard terms as they relate to a fundamental transaction and require a net-cash settlement upon change in control of the Company and other warrants contain full ratchet provisions that reduce the exercise price of the warrants in the event of a transaction resulting in the issuance of equity below the current price of the warrants. Therefore these warrants are classified as derivatives. These warrants have been recorded at their fair value using a binomial option pricing model and will be recorded at their respective fair value at each subsequent balance sheet date. See Note 11, Warrants, for additional discussion.
In addition to items that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, there are also assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. Assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis include certain long-lived assets, including goodwill. As such, the Company has determined that each of these fair value measurements reside within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
Accrued Warranty Costs
Accrued Warranty Costs
The Company offers a standard warranty on product sales generally for a one to two-year period, however, the Company has offered longer warranty periods, ranging from three to four years, in order to meet competition or meet customer demands. The Company provides for the estimated cost of the future warranty claims on the date the product is sold. Total accrued warranty is included in Other Accrued Liabilities and Other liabilities on the balance sheet. The activity in the warranty accrual during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 is summarized as follows:

Earnings Per Share
Earnings Per Share
Basic net loss per common share excludes dilution for potentially dilutive securities and is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share gives effect to dilutive options, warrants and other potential common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share is equal to the basic net loss per common share since all potentially dilutive securities are anti-dilutive for each of the periods presented. The loss on the change in fair value of the warrant liability was considered in the diluted earnings per share calculation and was deemed to be antidilutive for all periods presented. Potential common stock equivalents outstanding as of September 30, 2015 and 2014 consist of common stock equivalents of common stock purchase warrants, senior secured convertible debentures, convertible preferred stock and common stock options, which are summarized as follows:

Adoption of New Accounting Standards
Adoption of New Accounting Standards
In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standard Update 2014-08, Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360): Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity ("ASU 2014-08").
The amendments in ASU 2014-08 change the criteria for reporting discontinued operations while enhancing disclosures in this area. Under the new guidance, only disposals representing a strategic shift in operations should be presented as discontinued operations. Those strategic shifts should have a major effect on the organization's operations and financial results. In addition, the new guidance requires expanded disclosures about discontinued operations that will provide financial statement users with more information about the assets, liabilities, income, and expenses of discontinued operations.
The provisions of ASU 2014-08 were required to be applied in a prospective manner to disposals or classifications as held for sale components of an entity that occur with annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014 and interim periods within those years.
The adoption of ASU 2014-08 did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated results of operations and financial condition.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-16, "Business Combinations (Topic 805): Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments." The amendments in ASU 2015-16 require that an acquirer recognize adjustments to estimated amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined, rather than retrospectively adjusting amounts previously reported. The amendments require that the acquirer record, in the same period's financial statements, the effect on earnings of changes in depreciation, amortization, or other income effects, if any, as a result of the change to the estimated amounts, calculated as if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date. Effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendments should be applied prospectively to adjustments to provisional amounts that occur after the effective date with earlier application permitted for financial statements that have not been issued. The Company does not believe the adoption of this ASU will have a significant impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.
In July, 2015, The FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-11, Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory (Topic 330) ("ASU 2015-11").
ASU 2015-11 outlines that inventory within the scope of its guidance be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Inventory measured using last-in, first-out (LIFO) are not impacted by the new guidance. Prior to the issuance of ASU 2015-11, inventory was measured at the lower of cost or market (where market was defined as replacement cost, with a ceiling of net realizable value and floor of net realizable value less a normal profit margin).
For a public entity, the amendments in ASU 2015-11 are effective, in a prospective manner, for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period (the first quarter of fiscal year 2017 for the Company). Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period.
The Company is in the process of assessing the impact, if any, of ASU 2015-11 on its consolidated financial statements.
In May 2014, The FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) ("ASU 2014-09").
ASU 2014-09 outlines a single comprehensive model to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes mos current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. ASU 2014-09 also requires entities to disclose sufficient information, both quantitative and qualitative, to enable users of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers.
An entity should apply the amendments in this ASU using one of the following two methods: 1. Retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented with a possibility to elect certain practical expedients, or, 2. Retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying ASU 2014-09 recognized at the date of initial application. If an entity elects the latter transition method, it also should provide certain additional disclosures.
For a public entity, the amendments in ASU 2014-09 were to be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. In July 2015, the FASB voted for a one year deferral of the effective date of ASU 2014-09 and issued an exposure draft. The new guidance will be effective for annual and interim periods beginning on or after December 15, 2017. Early application is not permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact that adopting this new accounting guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements and footnote disclosures.
In August 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern ("ASU 2014-15"). ASU 2014-15 provides guidance on management's responsibility in evaluating whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued (or within one year after the date that the financial statements are available to be issued when applicable). ASU 2014-15 also provides guidance related to the required disclosures as a result of management evaluation. The amendments in ASU 2014-15 are effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter. Early application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the new guidance to determine the impact the adoption of this guidance will have on the Company's results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.
In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2015-03, "Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs" (Subtopic 835-30). ASU No. 2015-03 provides guidance that will require debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability to be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, in the same manner as debt discounts, rather than as an asset. The standard is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015 and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the new guidance to determine the impact the adoption of this guidance will have on the Company's results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.
