Abstract
In-vivo reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) increases diagnostic accuracy for melanoma diagnosis when combined with dermoscopy. In patients with multiple atypical nevi a comparative dermoscopic approach improves melanoma recognition and saves unnecessary excision. The performance of a comparative approach combining dermoscopy and RCM has not been yet investigated.
