Dermatoscopy and Skin Cancer, updated edition, is a handbook to help dermatologists, dermatoscopists and GPs easily differentiate between benign and malignant tumours, leading to fewer unnecessary biopsies and earlier treatment of cancers.

Based around two easy to follow algorithms, 'Chaos and Clues' and 'Prediction without Pigment', the book shows all dermatoscope users how to confidently diagnose skin lesions earlier and with greater precision.

In addition, this handbook provides coverage of:

the microanatomy of the skin
specimen processing and histopathology
the language of dermatoscopy to help name and define structures and patterns
approaches to skin examination and photodocumentation
revised pattern analysis as an additional diagnostic algorithm
dermatoscopic features of common and significant lesions.

Using hundreds of high quality images, the authors provide a detailed algorithmic approach to assessing the skin; an approach that has been successfully taught to thousands of doctors around the world.

From Doody's reviews, December 2023
"Many dermoscopy books exist; some are too pedantic and explain concepts with dermatoscopic jargon, while others purport to simplify the learning process but quickly succumb to the same criticism. Most are replete with abnormal looking lesions, but fall short on including examples of normal variations. This book delivers what it promises. I definitely recommend it as the first reference for mastering diagnosis of skin lesions with a dermatoscope." - 4 stars!

Industry Reviews

"This well-references and elegant synthesis of the modified pattern analysis method for skin lesion dermatoscopy, clinical skin examination and histopathological correlation provides the clinician with the practical weapons needed in the fight against skin cancer. Early diagnosis undoubtedly saves lives and reduces morbidity." - Dr Jeffrey Keir (Faculty of Medicine, University of Queensland, Australia)

"Strongly recommended for all skin lesion diagnosticians from nurse to professor, beginners and advanced will all get something from this book. Very inexpensive too!" Amazon reviewer

Beautiful examples of clinico-dermoscopic-pathologic correlation "Rosendahl and Marozava's Dermatoscopy and Skin Cancer is a great resource for both beginner dermoscopists and those wishing to advance their skills. Illustrations combining clinical, dermoscopic and histopathologic images emphasise the correlations between these three critical modalities and are particularly useful for understanding and identifying the whole range of skin cancers and their stimulants." Amazon reviewer

A very useful book "This book is useful and "solid". No frills. Much practical experience, excellent teaching organization. There is everything you need to know not only for the family doctor, but also for an experienced dermatoscopist. Recommended as a fundamental text for the topic." Amazon reviewer
