title: [Macrophotographic correlates of the histology of precursor nevi and SSM in relation to the McGovern model].
abstract: Structures within pigmented skin tumors, which are beyond the dissolving powers of the eye, may be analysed in vivo by macroscopy using incident lighting. Benign melanocytic nevi have a symmetric and distinct horizontal pattern of pigmentation, whereas in melanoma, intraepidermal tumor growth may show coexistence of net- and/or cluster-like and non-structural forms of pigmentation.
