Studies reported cancer its stages using dermoscopy reflectance confocal microscopy, however there are limited reports detecting micro-melanomas less than 2-mm diameter. Previously, smalles...

This paper proposes an innovative method for segmentation of skin lesions in dermoscopy images developed by the authors, based on fuzzy classification of pixels and histogram thresholding.

This report describes the usefulness of dermoscopy as a supportive diagnostic tool in a pseudomonas folliculitis case.
