| Description |
This chapter covers lesions of vascular origin as seen by dermoscopyThe examination of [skin lesions] with a 'dermatoscope'. This traditionally consists of a magnifier (typically x10), a non-polarised light source, a transparent plate and a liquid medium between the instrument and the skin, and allows inspection of skin lesions unobstructed by skin surface reflections. Modern dermatoscopes dispense with the use of liquid medium and instead use polarised light to cancel out skin surface reflections.

Cutaneous vascular lesionsThis glossary term has not yet been described. comprise of all skin diseaseThis glossary term has not yet been described. that originate from or affect blood or lymphatic vesselsThis glossary term has not yet been described., including malignant or benign tumors, malformations and inflammatory disease. While some vascular lesions are easily diagnosed clinically and dermoscopically, other vascular lesions can be challenging as many of them share similar dermoscopic features.
This chapter reviews all vascular lesions for which dermoscopic features were previously described.
