ABSTRACT

Despite the successful assignment of Current Procedural Terminology codes, there are barriers to incorporating in vivo reflectance confocalmicroscopy (RCM) into daily practice. Importantly, the dermatopathologist can play a key role in interpreting RCM images and can use these images to correlate with histopathology. Herein, we describe, using a case series, how RCM can be incorporated into the dermatopothalogist's practice. We also summarize the criteria for RCM diagnosis of common neoplasms.
