Sequential digital dermatoscopic imaging of patients with multiple atypical nevi

Patients with multiple atypical nevi are at higher risk of developing melanoma. Among different techniques, sequential digital dermatoscopic imaging (SDDI) is a state-of-the art method to enhance diagnostic accuracy in evaluating pigmented skin lesions. It relies on analyzing digital dermatoscopic...

description Patients with multiple atypical nevi are at higher risk of developing melanoma.
