Dermoscopy is widely used in dermatological practice. The method increases the accuracy of basal cell carcinoma (BCC) detection. Pigmented and nonpigmented variants of basal cell carcinoma present different dermoscopic features. Specific dermoscopy criteria have been recognized in different subtypes of BCC. Differentiation of superficial BCC from other subtypes is the most important issue, as it may determine further management decisions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
