Key dermoscopic features of melanoma: (A) Melanoma presenting with atypical globules and dots of different sizes and shapes (yellow arrows), patches of atypical network (blue arrowhead) and a blue-white veil (blue arrow). (B) Melanoma with diffuse polymorphous vasculature, consisting of serpentine, dotted, and glomerular vessels, can be found throughout the lesion (yellow arrowheads); in addition, patches of atypical network (blue arrowheads) are seen. (C) Superficial spreading melanoma with pseudopods distributed asymmetrically around the lesion (black arrowheads). (D) Melanoma with the regression structure blue-grey peppering (black star); shiny white lines are also seen throughout the entire lesion (red arrows) along with a central blue-white veil (red arrowhead)
