Despite the successful assignment of Current Procedural Terminology codes, there are barriers to incorporating in vivo reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) into daily practice. Importantly, the dermatopathologist can play a key role in interpreting RCM images and can use these images to correlate with histopathology. Herein, we describe, using a case series, how RCM can be incorporated into the dermatopothalogist's practice. We also summarize the criteria for RCM diagnosis of common neoplasms.
尽管当前手术操作术语编码已成功应用，但将体内反射式共聚焦显微镜（RCM）纳入日常实践仍存在障碍。重要的是，皮肤病理学家在解读RCM图像方面可发挥关键作用，并可利用这些图像与组织病理学进行关联。在此，我们通过一个病例系列描述了RCM如何能够纳入皮肤病理学家的实践中。我们还总结了常见肿瘤的RCM诊断标准。
