title: Routine recording of dermoscopic images as an aid to diagnosis.
abstract: Dermoscopy has been described as a useful tool for the early diagnosis of malignant melanoma. The authors were asked to routinely produce high-quality Dermoscopic images which could be used at Dermatology Multi-disciplinary team meetings as an aid in the evaluation of moles on patients. The process facilitating this procedure is described.
