New Technologies in Diagnosis and Prognosis of Melanocytic Lesions.

Analysis of morphological characteristics for the diagnosis of melanoma remains a challenge. New technologies for the diagnosis and prognosis of melanocytic lesions have been emerging to ensure earlier and more accurate detection. In this article, we review multiple technologies that improve melanoma diagnostic accuracy such as electrical impedance spectroscopy, pigmented lesion assay, reflectance confocal microscopy, and gene expression profile tests.
