BACKGROUND
There is a need for better standardization of the dermoscopic terminology in assessing pigmented skin lesions.
OBJECTIVE
The virtual Consensus Net Meeting on Dermoscopy was organized to investigate reproducibility and validity of the various features and diagnostic algorithms.
METHODS
Dermoscopic images of 108 lesions were evaluated via the Internet by 40 experienced dermoscopists using a 2-step diagnostic procedure. The first-step algorithm distinguished melanocytic versus… Expand
Paper Mentions
Observational Clinical Trial
Hypo-pigmented skin lesions in children are of great concern in the society. They cause
anxiety among children and their parents due to the social stigma attached to these… Expand
