Dermatoscopy for melanoma and pigmented lesions. Rao, B. K. & Ahn, C. S. Dermatologic Clinics, 30(3):413–434, July, 2012. Paper doi abstract bibtex This article presents an overview of the history and development of dermatoscopy over the last 2 decades. The common dermatoscopic diagnostic algorithms are discussed, including classic pattern analysis, the ABCD rule (asymmetry, border, color, and dermatoscopic structures), 7-point checklist, and Menzies method, as well as a new method by the authors (ASAP: a simple and practical approach). In addition, evidence on the clinical impact and challenges of dermatoscopy for the diagnosis and management of pigmented lesions and the importance of training are reviewed.
