PageSummary
Exceptions to rules and mimickersThe two-step dermoscopy algorithm aims to differentiate between melanocytic and non-melanocytic lesions and to determine if a melanocytic lesion is benign or malignant. While algorithms serve as guidelines that apply to the majority of cases, one should remember that every rule has exceptions. The recognition of the exceptions is essential for the maintenance of high diagnostic precision.
