 Dermatoscopy and Skin Cancer, second edition, is a handbook to help dermatologists, dermatoscopists and GPs easily differentiate between benign and malignant tumours, leading to fewer unnecessary biopsies and earlier treatment of cancers.

Based around two easy to follow algorithms, Chaos and Clues and Prediction without Pigment, the book shows all dermatoscope users how to confidently diagnose skin lesions earlier and with greater precision.

In addition, this handbook provides coverage of:



  • the microanatomy of the skin
  • specimen processing and histopathology
  • the language of dermatoscopy to help name and define structures and patterns
  • approaches to skin examination and photodocumentation
  • revised pattern analysis as an additional diagnostic algorithm
  • dermatoscopic features of common and significant lesions.


Using hundreds of high quality images, the authors provide a detailed algorithmic approach to assessing the skin; an approach that has been successfully taught to thousands of doctors around the world.

From Doodys reviews, December 2023
"Many dermoscopy books exist; some are too pedantic and explain concepts with dermatoscopic jargon, while others purport to simplify the learning process but quickly succumb to the same criticism. Most are replete with abnormal looking lesions, but fall short on including examples of normal variations. This book delivers what it promises. I definitely recommend it as the first reference for mastering diagnosis of skin lesions with a dermatoscope." - 4 stars!

Industry Reviews

Outstanding skin cancer diagnosis book for beginners and experts alike "This book is based on some 20,000 skin lesion cases which Professor Rosendahl personally diagnosed, photographed and treated in his Brisbane clinic, and analysed through the SCARD data base which he helped create. That is serious data from real life, giving this book great authority. I had the privilege of studying in the authors clinic, and as a doctor of 40 years, 20 years working with skin tumours, I know a real expert when I see one at work.
"Cliff is passionate about skin cancer diagnosis, and teaching it to others. Highly regarded as an original researcher, he teaches skin lesion recognition all over the world, including places like Iran, Turkey and Ukraine as well as Australia, New Zealand and Western Europe. He worked with Viennese dermatoscopy superstar Professor Harald Kittler to develop the Chaos and Clues and Prediction without Pigment algorithms which run through the whole book.



"This modern diagnostic approach builds on previous knowledge and is objectively as diagnostically accurate as older diagnostic methods, but is quicker to learn and easier to teach. Moreover, the method uses an objective, geometric , descriptive terminology for lesion patterns and clues, which translates into non-English languages more easily than the older metaphorical terminology (very necessary since skin cancer and dermoscopy are global) and gives a more reproducible way of sharing data for research.



"Strongly recommended for all skin lesion diagnosticians from nurse to professor, beginners and advanced will all get something from this book. Very inexpensive too!" Amazon reviewer



(Declaration of interest: SH received generous hospitality and tuition from Cliff Rosendahl when visiting Brisbane, and contributed a foreword to the book.)



Superb "The most informative and accessible book I have read on this subject. Great illustrations and clear, informative, relevent text on skin structure, histopathological correlations of dermatoscopy and methodology for dermatoscopy along with excellent images. Tremendous value for money." Amazon reviewer



Beautiful examples of clinico-dermoscopic-pathologic correlation "Rosendahl and Marozava's Dermatoscopy and Skin Cancer is a great resource for both beginner dermoscopists and those wishing to advance their skills. Illustrations combining clinical, dermoscopic and histopathologic images emphasise the correlations between these three critical modalities and are particularly useful for understanding and identifying the whole range of skin cancers and their stimulants." Amazon reviewer



The Best Dermatoscopy informative book going! World class standard reference medical text "This very high quality book co-written by one of the worlds leading light experts (with his associate - Aksana) in the field of skin cancer detection by dermatoscopy. Beautifully presented by a very articulate Professor of Medicine author using his own dermatoscopic photos. The book and its succinct content is also very well organized and indexed.
Every Skin Cancer Medical Doctor must have this book on his / her top shelf as an excellent resource and reference as is my copy, in our quest to master early detection and zero tolerance approach to skin cancer"
Amazon reviewer



A very useful book "This book is useful and "solid". No frills. Much practical experience, excellent teaching organization. There is everything you need to know not only for the family doctor, but also for an experienced dermatoscopist.
Recommended as a fundamental text for the topic." Amazon reviewer
