The main focus of this book is to provide a comprehensive, current, and accurate lexicon to expand and clarify the meaning of surface microscopic and dermoscopic terminology including a broad range of both melanocytic and non-melanocytic skin lesions. In accordance with Stolz et al. (2002) we use the term skin “surface microscopy” as a general one, and prefer “dermoscopy” for examination of the skin with 10-fold magnification.
