Malignant melanoma: relationship to parameters of differentiation.

abstract：:In tissue counter analysis, a novel image analysis tool in the evaluation of dermatoscopic images, a lattice of elementary measuring masks (elements) of equal size is randomly placed over the image and the contents of each element is evaluated by a set of colour and texture features. In this study, we tested the effic...

Because of the lack of effective treatments and aggressive nature of melanoma, treatments are often discontinued and new treatments are initiated in rapid succession.
