Advances in dermoscopy for detecting melanocytic lesions
Over the last 30 years dermatological approaches to diagnosis and management of melanocytic lesions have been revolutionized by the introduction of dermoscopy. Continuous improvements are being made in applying the technique, mostly in melanoma diagnosis, follow-up of melanocytic lesions and nevogenesis. Identification of new dermoscopic criteria, such as the dermoscopic island and the blue-bla...
متن کاملA comparative review of melanocytic neoplasms.
Melanoma is a devastating disease frequently encountered within both veterinary and human medicine. Molecular changes linked with neoplastic transformation of melanocytes include mutations in genes that encode proteins intrinsic to the regulatory pathways of two tumor suppressor proteins (retinoblastoma protein and p53), proto-oncogene mutation to oncogenes, altered expression of epithelial cad...
متن کاملPrediction of Dermoscopy Patterns for Recognition of both Melanocytic and Non-Melanocytic Skin Lesions
A differentiation between all types of melanocytic and non-melanocytic skin lesions (MnM–SK) is a challenging task for both computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) and dermatologists due to the complex structure of patterns. The dermatologists are widely using pattern analysis as a first step with clinical attributes to recognize all categories of pigmented skin lesions (PSLs). To increase the diagnosti...
متن کاملDermoscopy basics and melanocytic lesions ( Part 1 of 2 )
Tokyo Women's Medical University Medical Center East, 2-1-10 Nishi-Ogu, Arakawa-ku, Tokyo 116-8567, Japan A dermoscope is a "stethoscope" for a dermatologist. It is more important to "use" dermoscope than to "learn" it. In the first part of this review, colour and structures of the pigmented lesions on dermoscopy will be elaborated. The important features on dermoscopy to differentiate melanoma...
متن کاملEx vivo dermoscopy of melanocytic tumors: time for dermatopathologists to learn dermoscopy.
BACKGROUND We have identified cases of skin cancer with discordances between clinical, dermoscopic, and histopathologic findings that were likely due to sampling errors in the pathology laboratory. This has prompted us to explore the use of ex vivo dermoscopy as an ancillary method of gross pathology, which may serve to guide tissue sectioning. Noncontact polarized dermoscopy was applied to pig...
