Dermatoscopy in the diagnosis of pigmented nevi
The high incidence of melanoma and unsatisfactory results of its treatment in some cases make the issue of timely diagnostics of pre-melanoma skin pathology, in particular the identification of pre-melanoma pigmented nevi, of great importance and can be ...

Identifying high‐risk melanoma patients: The importance of acquiring a detailed family history
Stratification by family history effectively identifies individuals with an increased melanoma risk compared with the general population. In addition to those from hereditary and familial melanoma families, surveillance should also be considered for melanoma patients from ‘possible familial melanoma’ families due to their elevated risk.

Diagnosis melanoma with artificial intelligence systems: A meta‐analysis study and systematic review
This meta‐analysis evaluates the diagnostic accuracy of AI‐based skin cancer models. The pooled AUC was 0.96, with sensitivity and specificity of 0.89 and 0.92, respectively. Hybrid models demonstrated superior performance (AUC: 0.98) compared to single DL (AUC:0.95) and ML (AUC:0.95) models.

Operating Microscope in the Analysis of Localized Juvenile Spongiotic Gingival Hyperplasia
ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to describe the clinical microscopic features of localized juvenile spongiotic gingival hyperplasia (LJSGH) using an operating microscope (OM), a non‐invasive technique rarely applied to oral mucosal lesions. An 18‐year‐old female presented with asymptomatic gingival redness and bleeding affecting the buccal gingiva ...

Dermoscopic evaluation of normal canine skin with a handheld dermoscope
Background – Dermoscopy is a noninvasive diagnostic tool that provides a magnified view of skin structures. While dermoscopy is described for certain canine dermatological diseases, large‐scale studies evaluating normal skin are lacking. Hypothesis/Objective – This study aimed to correlate dermoscopic findings with histopathological results in healthy ...

Improved Confidence Intervals for the Sensitivity at a Fixed Level of Specificity of a Continuous-Scale Diagnostic Test [PDF]
For a continuous-scale test, it is an interest to construct a confidence interval for the sensitivity of the diagnostic test at the cut-off that yields a predetermined level of its specificity (eg. 80%, 90%, or 95%).
