  • Dermatoscopic features of thin (<= 2 mm Breslow thickness) vs. thick (>2 mm Breslow thickness) nodular melanoma and predictors of nodular melanoma versus nodular non-melanoma tumours: a multicentric collaborative study by the International Dermoscopy Society
  • 2020
  • Ingår i: Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology. - : Wiley. - 0926-9959 .- 1468-3083. ; 34:11, s. 2541-2547
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Background Thin nodular melanoma (NM) often lacks conspicuous melanoma-specific dermatoscopic criteria and escapes clinical detection until it progresses to a thicker and more advanced tumour. Objective To investigate the dermatoscopic morphology of thin (<= 2 mm Breslow thickness) vs. thick (>2 mm) NM and to identify dermatoscopic predictors of its differential diagnosis from other nodular tumours. Methods Retrospective, morphological case-control study, conducted on behalf of the International Dermoscopy Society. Dermatoscopic images of NM and other nodular tumours from 19 skin cancer centres worldwide were collected and analysed. Results Overall, 254 tumours were collected (69 NM of Breslow thickness <= 2 mm, 96 NM >2 mm and 89 non-melanoma nodular lesions). Light brown coloration (50.7%) and irregular brown dots/globules (42.0%) were most frequently observed in <= 2 mm NMs. Multivariate analysis revealed that dotted vessels (3.4-fold), white shiny streaks (2.9-fold) and irregular blue structureless area (2.4-fold) were predictors for thinner NM compared to non-melanoma nodular tumours. Overall, irregular blue structureless area (3.4-fold), dotted vessels (4.6-fold) and serpentine vessels (1.9-fold) were predictors of all NM compared to non-melanoma nodular lesions. Limitations Absence of a centralized, consensus pathology review and cases selected form tertiary centres maybe not reflecting the broader community. Conclusions Our study sheds light into the dermatoscopic morphology of thin NM in comparison to thicker NM and could provide useful clues for its differential diagnosis from other non-melanoma nodular tumours.

  • Standardization of dermoscopic terminology and basic dermoscopic parameters to evaluate in general dermatology (non-neoplastic dermatoses): an expert consensus on behalf of the International Dermoscopy Society
  • 2020
  • Ingår i: British Journal of Dermatology. - : Oxford University Press (OUP). - 0007-0963 .- 1365-2133. ; 182:2, s. 454-467
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Background Over the last few years, several articles on dermoscopy of non-neoplastic dermatoses have been published, yet there is poor consistency in the terminology among different studies. Objectives We aimed to standardize the dermoscopic terminology and identify basic parameters to evaluate in non-neoplastic dermatoses through an expert consensus. Methods The modified Delphi method was followed, with two phases: (i) identification of a list of possible items based on a systematic literature review and (ii) selection of parameters by a panel of experts through a three-step iterative procedure (blinded e-mail interaction in rounds 1 and 3 and a face-to-face meeting in round 2). Initial panellists were recruited via e-mail from all over the world based on their expertise on dermoscopy of non-neoplastic dermatoses. Results Twenty-four international experts took part in all rounds of the consensus and 13 further international participants were also involved in round 2. Five standardized basic parameters were identified: (i) vessels (including morphology and distribution); (ii) scales (including colour and distribution); (iii) follicular findings; (iv) 'other structures' (including colour and morphology); and (v) 'specific clues'. For each of them, possible variables were selected, with a total of 31 different subitems reaching agreement at the end of the consensus (all of the 29 proposed initially plus two more added in the course of the consensus procedure). Conclusions This expert consensus provides a set of standardized basic dermoscopic parameters to follow when evaluating inflammatory, infiltrative and infectious dermatoses. This tool, if adopted by clinicians and researchers in this field, is likely to enhance the reproducibility and comparability of existing and future research findings and uniformly expand the universal knowledge on dermoscopy in general dermatology.

  • Delphi Consensus Among International Experts on the Diagnosis, Management, and Surveillance for Lentigo Maligna
  • 2023
  • Ingår i: Dermatology Practical & Conceptual. - 2160-9381. ; 13:3
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Introduction: Melanoma of the lentigo maligna (LM) type is challenging. There is lack of consensus on the optimal diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up. Objectives: To obtain general consensus on the diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up for LM. Methods: A modified Delphi method was used. The invited participants were either members of the International Dermoscopy Society, academic experts, or authors of published articles relating to skin cancer and melanoma. Participants were required to respond across three rounds using a 4-point Likert scale). Consensus was defined as >75% of participants agreeing/strongly agreeing or disagreeing/strongly disagreeing. Results: Of the 31 experts invited to participate in this Delphi study, 29 participants completed Round 1 (89.9% response rate), 25/31 completed Round 2 (77.5% response rate), and 25/31 completed Round 3 (77.5% response rate). Experts agreed that LM diagnosis should be based on a clinical and dermatoscopic approach (92%) followed by a biopsy. The most appropriate primary treatment of LM was deemed to be margin-controlled surgery (83.3%), although non-surgical modalities, especially imiquimod, were commonly used either as alternative off-label primary treatment in selected patients or as adjuvant therapy following surgery; 62% participants responded life-long clinical follow-up was needed for LM. Conclusions: Clinical and histological diagnosis of LM is challenging and should be based on macroscopic, dermatoscopic, and RCM examination followed by a biopsy. Different treatment modalities and follow-up should be carefully discussed with the patient.

  • Expert agreement on the presence and spatial localization of melanocytic features in dermoscopy.
  • 2023
  • Ingår i: The Journal of investigative dermatology. - 1523-1747. ; 144:3
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Dermoscopy aids in melanoma detection; however, agreement on dermoscopic features, including those of high clinical relevance, remains poor. Herein we attempted to evaluate agreement among experts on 'exemplar images' not only for the presence of melanocytic-specific features but also for spatial localization. This was a cross-sectional, multicenter, observational study. Dermoscopy images exhibiting at least one of 31 melanocytic-specific features were submitted by 25 world experts as 'exemplars'. Using a web-based platform that allows for image mark-up of specific contrast-defined regions (superpixels), 20 expert readers annotated 248 dermoscopic images in collections of 62 images. Each collection was reviewed by five independent readers. A total of 4,507 feature observations were performed. Good-to-excellent agreement was found for 14 of 31 features (45.2%), with 8 achieving excellent agreement (Gwet's AC >0.75) and 7 of them being melanoma-specific features. These features were: 'Peppering /Granularity' (0.91); 'Shiny White Streaks' (0.89); 'Typical Pigment network' (0.83); 'Blotch Irregular' (0.82); 'Negative Network' (0.81); 'Irregular Globules' (0.78); 'Dotted Vessels' (0.77) and 'Blue Whitish Veil' (0.76). By utilizing an exemplar dataset, good-to-excellent agreement was found for 14 features that have previously been shown useful in discriminating nevi from melanoma. All images are public (www.isic-archive.com) and can be used for education, scientific communication and machine learning experiments.

  • Dermoscopic Findings in Intraepidermal Carcinoma: an Interobserver Agreement Study
  • 2023
  • Ingår i: Dermatology Practical & Conceptual. - : Mattioli1885. - 2160-9381. ; 13:1
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Introduction: A wide range of descriptive terms have been used for dermoscopic findings in intraepidermal carcinoma (IEC) and the clinical diagnostic accuracy of IEC can be challenging. Furthermore, dermoscopic findings in IEC have only rarely been evaluated in fair-skinned populations.Objectives: To measure the interobserver agreement between dermatologists for dermoscopic findings in IEC. Furthermore, to describe the frequency of these findings in a predominantly fair-skinned population. Methods: One hundred dermoscopic images of histopathologically verified IECs were collected. The 11 most common dermoscopic findings described in previous studies were re-defined in a new terminology in a pre-study consensus meeting. Images were assessed by eight experienced international dermoscopists. The frequency of findings and the interobserver agreement was analyzed.Results: Scales (83%), dotted/glomerular vessels (77%), pinkish-white areas (73%) and hemorrhage (46%) were the most commonly present dermoscopic findings. Pigmented structures were found in 32% and shiny white structures (follicular or stromal) in 54% of the IEC. Vascular structures (vessels and/or hemorrhage) could be seen in 89% of the lesions. Overall, the interobserver agreement for the respective dermoscopic findings was poor to moderate, with the highest kappa values noted for scales (0.55) and hemorrhage (0.54) and the lowest for pinkish-white areas (0.015).Conclusion: Our results confirm those of previous studies on dermoscopy in IEC, including the frequency of pigmented structures despite the fair-skinned population. The interobserver agreement was relatively low. The proposed new terminology and our findings can hopefully serve as a guideline for researchers, teachers and students on how to identify IEC.

  • precisionFDA Truth Challenge V2: Calling variants from short- and long-reads in difficult-to-map regions
  • 2020
  • Annan publikation (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • The precisionFDA Truth Challenge V2 aimed to assess the state-of-the-art of variant calling in difficult-to-map regions and the Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC). Starting with FASTQ files, 20 challenge participants applied their variant calling pipelines and submitted 64 variant callsets for one or more sequencing technologies (~35X Illumina, ~35X PacBio HiFi, and ~50X Oxford Nanopore Technologies). Submissions were evaluated following best practices for benchmarking small variants with the new GIAB benchmark sets and genome stratifications. Challenge submissions included a number of innovative methods for all three technologies, with graph-based and machine-learning methods scoring best for short-read and long-read datasets, respectively. New methods out-performed the 2016 Truth Challenge winners, and new machine-learning approaches combining multiple sequencing technologies performed particularly well. Recent developments in sequencing and variant calling have enabled benchmarking variants in challenging genomic regions, paving the way for the identification of previously unknown clinically relevant variants.

  • Full-body skin examination in screening for cutaneous malignancy: A focus on concealed sites and the practices of international dermatologists
  • 2024
  • Ingår i: JEADV CLINICAL PRACTICE. - 2768-6566.
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • BackgroundFull-body skin examination (FSE) is fundamental to the diagnosis of cutaneous malignancy but may not always include concealed site examination (CSE).ObjectivesTo determine the approach of international dermatologists to CSE during FSE and examine influencing factors, barriers and attitudes toward CSE.MethodsMembers of the International Dermoscopy Society were surveyed using an online 12-question survey disseminated via email.ResultsThere were 706 completed responses among 1249 unique clicks to the survey, representing a completion rate of 56.5%. Fifty-four percent of respondents reported always examining the breasts, while 52.8%, 18.8%, and 11.8% always examined the scalp, oral, and anogenital mucosa, respectively. The most frequent reason for examining concealed sites was patient concern, whilst common reasons for not examining concealed sites included low incidence of pathology and concern regarding allegations of sexual misconduct.ConclusionsOur findings allude to the need for international consensus guidelines regarding the conduct and inclusion of concealed or sensitive sites in routine FSE. This is essential to define clinician responsibilities, inform patient expectations of care, and thereby mitigate potential medicolegal repercussions.

    • BackgroundThe detection of cutaneous metastases (CMs) from various primary tumours represents a diagnostic challenge.ObjectivesOur aim was to evaluate the general characteristics and dermatoscopic features of CMs from different primary tumours.MethodsRetrospective, multicentre, descriptive, cross-sectional study of biopsy-proven CMs.ResultsWe included 583 patients (247 females, median age: 64 years, 25%-75% percentiles: 54-74 years) with 632 CMs, of which 52.2% (n = 330) were local, and 26.7% (n = 169) were distant. The most common primary tumours were melanomas (n = 474) and breast cancer (n = 59). Most non-melanoma CMs were non-pigmented (n = 151, 95.6%). Of 169 distant metastases, 54 (32.0%) appeared on the head and neck region. On dermatoscopy, pigmented melanoma metastases were frequently structureless blue (63.6%, n = 201), while amelanotic metastases were typified by linear serpentine vessels and a white structureless pattern. No significant difference was found between amelanotic melanoma metastases and CMs of other primary tumours.ConclusionsThe head and neck area is a common site for distant CMs. Our study confirms that most pigmented melanoma metastasis are structureless blue on dermatoscopy and may mimic blue nevi. Amelanotic metastases are typified by linear serpentine vessels and a white structureless pattern, regardless of the primary tumour.
