“…The presence of yellowish crusts at dermoscopy has been previously described in 78.8% of 146 evaluated BD lesions, but it is not specific, and the presence of crusts alone is not a sufficient criterion for this diagnosis. 2 , 3 In crusted lesions, the removal of the crusts may allow the observation of other dermoscopic structures that can help achieve the diagnosis. The removal of crusts should be performed with caution to avoid damage to the epithelium because this maneuver can allow the observation of other dermoscopic structures that make the diagnosis possible.…”

Background Early accurate detection of all skin cancer types is important to guide appropriate management, to reduce morbidity and to improve survival. Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is almost always a localised skin cancer with potential to infiltrate and damage surrounding tissue, whereas a minority of cutaneous squamous cell carcinomas (cSCCs) and invasive melanomas are higher-risk skin cancers with the potential to metastasise and cause death. Dermoscopy has become an important tool to assist specialist clinicians in the diagnosis of melanoma, and is increasingly used in primary-care settings. Dermoscopy is a precision-built handheld illuminated magnifier that allows more detailed examination of the skin down to the level of the superficial dermis. Establishing the value of dermoscopy over and above visual inspection for the diagnosis of BCC or cSCC in primary-and secondary-care settings is critical to understanding its potential contribution to appropriate skin cancer triage, including referral of higher-risk cancers to secondary care, the identification of low-risk skin cancers that might be treated in primary care and to provide reassurance to those with benign skin lesions who can be safely discharged. Objectives To determine the diagnostic accuracy of visual inspection and dermoscopy, alone or in combination, for the detection of (a) BCC and (b) cSCC, in adults. We separated studies according to whether the diagnosis was recorded face-to-face (in person) or based on remote (imagebased) assessment.
