A retrospective analysis of dermoscopic images of histopathologically diagnosed clinically-challenging 64 flat FPSLs was conducted to establish the dermoscopic findings correspondin...
متن کاملHypoepiluminescence microscopy of pigmented skin lesions: new approach to improve recognition of dermoscopic structures.
BACKGROUND Hypoepiluminescence microscopy (HELM) is a new dermoscopic approach for analysis of pigmented skin lesions (PSLs) after surgical excision. OBJECTIVES The objective was to verify whether this method could provide additional morphologic information for diagnostic or didactic purposes compared to conventional epiluminescence microscopy (ELM).
