Dermatoscopy and Skin Cancer, updated edition, is a handbook to help dermatologists, dermatoscopists and GPs easily differentiate between benign and malignant tumours, leading to fewer unnecessary biopsies and earlier treatment of cancers. Based around two easy to follow algorithms, 'Chaos and Clues' and 'Prediction without Pigment', the book shows all dermatoscope users how to confidently diagnose skin lesions earlier and with greater precision. In addition, this handbook provides coverage of: the microanatomy of the skin specimen processing and histopathology the language of dermatoscopy to help name and define structures and patterns approaches to skin examination and photodocumentation revised pattern analysis as an additional diagnostic algorithm dermatoscopic features of common and significant lesions. Using hundreds of high quality images, the authors provide a detailed algorithmic approach to assessing the skin; an approach that has been successfully taught to thousands of doctors around the world.

This lavishly illustrated guide from experts will enable practitioners to get the most out of dermoscopy for investigations and treatments in general dermatology.

This practical atlas describes the use of dermatoscopy in the clinic, a technique that is increasingly used by the clinical dermatologist. It revolves around the use of clinical cases, simulating what happens in the clinic when the dermatologist is presented with a patient who has pigmented and non-pigmented lesions. Dermatologists perform diagnoses based on what they see on the skin and with these images recognize different diseases. This whole spectrum of forms and shapes is reflected in color. Dermatoscopy opens a new and very wide field of structures and colors that cannot be seen with the naked eye and, with appropriate training and the use of this book, improves clinical diagnosis. Atlas of Dermatoscopy Cases: Challenging and Complex Clinical Scenarios adds significantly to the analysis of cases from the Editors’ previous volume Comprehensive Atlas of Dermatoscopy Cases by teaching the technique through specially selected, complex, and interesting clinical cases and providing the reader a thorough understanding of the techniques and methodologies associated with diagnosis using dermatoscopy. It is of great use to the trainee dermatologist and any practicing dermatologist seeking to expand their skills with this important diagnostic tool.

This book describes the use of dermatoscopy to diagnose a wide spectrum of non-pigmented skin diseases. This is particularly important as the absence of pigment renders these lesions particularly challenging to diagnose. The book uses clinical cases, modeling when a dermatologist is presented with a patient presenting with non-pigmented lesions. Dermatoscopy opens a new and very wide field of skin appearance that cannot be seen with the naked eye and, with appropriate training and the use of this book, improves clinical diagnosis of non-pigmented lesions. Dermatoscopic Atlas of Non-Pigmented Lesions: Case-based Analysis and Management Options adds significantly to the analysis of cases from the editors’ previous volumes by teaching the technique through specially selected, complex and interesting clinical cases and providing the reader a thorough understanding of the techniques and methodologies associated with diagnosis using dermatoscopy. This book represents a valuable addition to pre-existing literature and enhance clinicians to expand their dermatoscopic skills and improve their daily practice.

This book provides a practical guide to the clinical decision-making process used in the management of skin cancers with the use of dermoscopy. Clinical cases are examined to help the reader through the treatment of unusual skin cancers using best practice techniques. A variety of skin conditions are covered, including melanoma, basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, Bowen’s disease and actinic keratosis. Clinical Cases in Dermoscopy of Skin Cancers highlights evidence-based best practice through its multidisciplinary approach and is an important addition to the literature to help trainees and practicing dermatologists or any healthcare professional who manages these patients.

It encompasses the classical methods of morphology such as the clinical and dermoscopic examination and dermatopathology. The book also deals with the most up-to-date diagnostic approaches such as laser scanning in-vivo microscopy and automated diagnosis. The visual ‘atlas’ includes superb clinical, dermoscopic and histopathologic images.
