Abstract

Although dermoscopy was primarily designed to facilitate in vivo diagnosis of skin tumors, recent advances indicate that it is also useful in the diagnosis of common skin infections and infestations. As such, dermoscopy links the research fields of dermatology and entomology to a field of “entomodermoscopy”. In this article, we give an overview of current applications of dermoscopy in the diagnosis of warts.
