An intuitive explanation of dermoscopic structures by digitally reconstructed pathological horizontal top-down view images

Abstract: Dermoscopy is a convenient tool to diagnose melanocytic lesions, especially nevus and melanoma. Various pigmented structures, including pigment network, dots and globules, and streaks, are observed in dermoscopy. Usually, 2D vertical images are used to explain the correlation of dermoscopy and histopathology. However, because the image of dermoscopy is horizontal, it is difficult for the horizontal view of dermoscopy to refer to the vertical view of histopathology. In our study, we digitally reconstructed 2D h… Show more

“…Furthermore, we analysed the spectral signatures of nevi with different dermoscopic patterns and histopathological types. Melanocytic lesions present dermoscopic patterns and features that correlate to histological morphology 37 . Against this background, we recorded dermoscopic images of different types of melanocytic nevi located on the trunk of a single volunteer (male, 27 years old) and labelled their histopathological type and corresponding pattern together with a board-certified derma-…”

“…Dermoscopy images are captured with dermoscopy, a type of optical observation tool used to assess the fine details of skin diseases ( 41 ). Clinicians frequently utilize dermoscopy to diagnose benign nevi and malignant melanoma ( 42 ). It serves as a bridge between clinical and pathological aspects, and thus dermoscopy is often referred to as a dermatologist’s stethoscope.…”
