Within Stage 1 the work was carried out in the Department of the Institute of Chemical Physics in Chernogolovka where the scientific discovery had been made. At Stage 2 the interest to SHS arose in different cities and towns of the former USSR. Within Stage 3 SHS entered the international scene. Now SHS processes and products are being studied in more than 50 countries.

Abstract

Dermoscopy is a useful tool to examine pigmented skin lesions. We use this method as a routine tool and have experienced many pigmented lesions. Here, we present four pigmented skin lesions (three are pigmented nevi and one is malignant melanoma) to demonstrate the usefulness of dermoscopy when making a clinical diagnosis of pigmented skin lesions.
