Special locations | Dermoscopy, a vital diagnostic tool in dermatology, is employed for examining skin lesions across various body sites. However, its application in special anatomical locations, such as the face, acral areas (palms and soles), nails, and mucosal membranes, presents unique challenges and requires specific expertise. These areas exhibit distinct anatomical and physiological characteristics that influence the presentation of skin lesions, including those that are cancerous. |
