FLuorescence Identification of Melanoma by a Multicenter Based Algorithm (FLIMMA)

All patients will undergo dermoscopic diagnosis and be documented with a video image storing. The diagnosis based on dermoscopy will be immediately documented. Then, as a second diagnostic procedure, fluorescence diagnostics based on the two photon excitation from a dye-laser will be performed. The classification as non-melanoma or malignant melanoma by the medical device LIMES will also be documented immediately. Afterwards, the lesion will be excised and undergo histo-pathologic examination by the respective histopathologist of the participating centers. The histopathologic diagnosis will serve as gold standard for subsequent evaluations of the diagnostic accuracy.
