Brief Summary
Reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) is the reference in vivo imaging technique for identifying malignant melanocytic tumors prior to surgical excision. However, it is not widely used due to its high cost and highly technical and time-consuming nature. In addition to Reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM), it currently use 2 less expensive dermatoscopes that also allow in vivo diagnosis: super-high magnification dermoscopy (D400) and Fluorescence-Advanced videodermatoscopy (FAV).

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
To compare the the relevance of each technique for the diagnostic of pigmented lesions.
The nature of the tumor is diagnosed by the imaging technique.
Day 1
Secondary Outcomes (1)
Comparison of performance of imaging techniques
Day 1
Study Arms (1)
Patients with a pigmented skin lesion
Patients with a pigmented skin lesion of more than 3mm diameter which have benefited systematically of all 3 imaging techniques at the same time, followed by either a surgical excision or annual imaging monitoring.
Interventions
Datas collected : Presence or absence of atypical roundish cell, dendritic cell, atypical nests, points, folliculotropism, blue homogenous zone, regular honeycomb pattern. Between 10 and 60 images taken by a hand-held camera set directly on the skin lesion, with an oily interface.
