Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Sensitivity of confocal microscope to improve melanoma detection

    Determine the sensitivity of confocal microscopy in the diagnosis of melanoma by comparison to the gold standard histopathologic diagnosis.

    Up to 1 year

  • Specificity of the confocal microscope to improve melanoma detection

    Determine the specificity of confocal microscopy in the diagnosis of melanoma by comparison to the gold standard histopathologic diagnosis

    Up to 1 year

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Patterns seen on the confocal image

    Up to 1 year
