Computer-Aided Diagnosis of Melanoma Subtypes Using Reflectance Confocal Images.

Lentigo maligna (LM) is an early form of pre-invasive melanoma that predominantly affects sun-exposed areas such as the face. LM is highly treatable when identified early but has an ill-defined clinical border and a high rate of recurrence. Atypical intraepidermal melanocytic proliferation (AIMP), also known as atypical melanocytic hyperplasia (AMH), is a histological description that indicates melanocytic proliferation with uncertain malignant potential.
