Dermoscopy and Lab Tests for Non-Melanoma Skin Tumors
Part of Cancer, Skin clinical trials.
This study looks at how well dermoscopy (a special magnifying tool) matches lab results for diagnosing non-melanoma skin tumors. It may help you get a clearer, faster diagnosis without needing extra tests.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a skin growth that is not melanoma (a type of skin cancer).
- The growth has been seen with a special microscope called a dermoscope.
- You will have a biopsy (a small skin sample) to confirm the diagnosis.

This trial compares two ways of marking skin before removing a non-melanoma skin cancer: using a special magnifying tool called a dermoscope versus the standard method. The goal is to see which method helps remove the cancer completely the first time.
This trial tests whether a special, very high-magnification dermoscopy tool can help doctors better diagnose skin tumors. It may improve accuracy during routine skin cancer screening.
This trial tests a new device (Dermalyser) that estimates how thick a suspected melanoma is by analyzing a dermoscopy image. It may help doctors plan surgery without needing extra procedures.
This study looks at skin spots that might be unusual moles or early melanoma using a special microscope that sees deep into the skin. It aims to match these microscope images with genetic information to better understand these spots.
This study is testing a handheld device that scans skin lesions to help detect melanoma. If you have a spot that your doctor thinks could be melanoma, this study will see how well the device works compared to standard checks.
This trial uses a special optical imaging scan to help diagnose skin cancer without needing a biopsy. It may be a good option if you have a suspicious skin lesion.
