Photography can be used with dermoscopy to monitor skin lesions over time. Dermoscopy significantly improves the sensitivity and specificity of melanoma detection, but also has a role in nonmelanoma skin cancer detection and in inflammatory dermatoses. Epiluminescence microscopy, incident light microscopy, skin-surface microscopy, and dermatoscopy are synonyms.
