During a long time, the visual exploration had been the main strategy in dermatology. Melanoma diagnosis is established with symptons like pruritus, scars and bleeding. The incidence of melanoma and its high mortality led to the use of dermoscopy, which had shown good results for identification, prevention and diagnosis of malign melanoma.
