Diagnostic Accuracy of Dermoscopy of Actinic Keratosis: A Systematic Review

Introduction: Dermoscopy is a tool that aids clinicians in the diagnosis of actinic keratosis; however, few diagnostic accuracy studies have determined its sensitivity and specificity for this diagnosis. Objective: Determine the diagnostic accuracy of dermoscopy on actinic keratosis. Methods:...
