Mimics of melanoma in reflectance confocal microscopy

International Journal of Dermatology, 2020
AbstractThe diagnosis of melanoma is challenging for both dermatologists and oncologists. Incidence of melanoma increases at a rate of 3–7% per year. Usage of modern tools such as dermoscopy and in vivo reflectance confocal microscopy improve early diagnosis and can save a life.

Skin Imaging With Reflectance Confocal Microscopy

Seminars in Cutaneous Medicine and Surgery, 2008
Confocal microscopy is a new imaging modality for noninvasive real-time tissue imaging with high resolution and contrast comparable with conventional histology. Application of this technology to skin imaging during the last decade has been an exciting advance in dermatology, allowing a virtual widow into living skin without the need for a conventional ...

Reflectance confocal microscopy diagnostic accuracy for malignant melanoma in different clinical settings: systematic review and meta‐analysis

Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, 2020
The diagnostic accuracy of reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) of cutaneous malignant melanoma (MM) seems promising. However, clinical scenarios in which RCM is most useful are still to be established.

Evaluation of reflectance confocal microscopy in dermatophytosis

Mycoses, 2012
SummaryTraditional diagnostic testing for dermatophyte infection currently requires skin scraping for light microscopy and/or fungal culture or skin biopsy. Immunofluorescent microscopy can also be used with calcofluor stain. All of these tests can be time‐consuming to perform, require a waiting period for results and are invasive.

Structural skin changes in elderly people investigated by reflectance confocal microscopy

Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, 2020
Reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) is particularly suitable for the study of skin ageing because it provides nearly histological information in vivo and non‐invasively.

In Vivo Reflectance Confocal Microscopy in Dermatology

2016
Imaging techniques capable of noninvasive, high-resolution, skin imaging in vivo have been the focus of recent attention in the dermatology field. These efforts are directed to improve the diagnostic accuracy of skin cancer, especially cutaneous melanoma.

Nodular skin lesions: correlation of reflectance confocal microscopy and optical coherence tomography features

Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, 2020
Nodular lesions have common clinical appearance but different prognoses. Differential diagnosis between melanoma (MM), basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and dermal naevus (DN) poses a challenge in clinical practice.

Reflectance Confocal Microscopy Applications in Cosmetology

2011
Skin is a multi-functional organ that present distinct aspects in physiological and pathological conditions. The two main structural layers of the skin, the epidermis and the dermis, can be either affected by many pathologic processes. An inevitable skin change occurs with the passage of time (skin aging) that can be dramatically accelerated by ...

Features of classic lichen planopilaris and frontal fibrosing alopecia in reflectance confocal microscopy: A preliminary study

Skin research and technology, 2020
Classic lichen planopilaris (LPP) and frontal fibrosing alopecia (FFA) are primary lymphocytic cicatricial alopecia. In patients with ambiguous clinical presentation, reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) a new noninvasive skin imaging technique, could ...

Efficacy of topical antioxidants in the skin hyperpigmentation control: A clinical study by reflectance confocal microscopy

Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2020
Some in vitro studies have reported the potential of antioxidants for the reduction of melanogenesis. However, it is important to assess the clinical efficacy of these substances in reducing skin hyperpigmentation.
