INTRODUCTION: Melanocytic nevi (MN), warts, seborrheic keratoses (SK), and psoriasis are four common types of skin surface lesions that typically require dermatoscopic examination for definitive diagnosis in clinical dermatology settings. This proces...
BACKGROUND: Melanoma is a serious risk to human health and early identification is vital for treatment success. Deep learning (DL) has the potential to detect cancer using imaging technologies and many studies provide evidence that DL algorithms can ...
In dermoscopic images, which allow visualization of surface skin structures not visible to the naked eye, lesion shape offers vital insights into skin diseases. In clinically practiced methods, asymmetric lesion shape is one of the criteria for diagn...
Melanoma is the deadliest skin cancer, presenting typically with changing pigmented areas and usually treated with surgical removal. As benign cutaneous pigmented lesions are very common in all populations, it can be challenging to identify which are...
