摘要皮肤镜检查是一种非侵入性技术，可观察皮肤的表皮和真皮层，识别肉眼不明显的特征，使其成为区分良性和恶性皮肤病变的有用诊断技术。有两种皮肤镜检查方法，非偏振和交叉偏振;两者都被认为在病变特征方面具有视觉差异。本文献综述的目的是确定非极化、交叉极化以及接触和非接触技术之间的优势和局限性。这项研究证实，有相似之处，以及差异，在可视化病变之间的非偏振和交叉偏振皮肤镜。非偏光皮肤镜显示表面特征，偏光皮肤镜显示更深的结构，结论是使用这两种方法可以提供互补的信息。
Abstract Dermoscopy is a non-invasive technique that visualizes the epidermal and dermal layers of the skin, identifying features that are not evident to the naked eye, making it a useful diagnostic technique in differentiating between benign and malignant skin lesions. There are two methods of dermoscopy, non-polarized and cross-polarized; both are perceived to give visual differences in lesion characteristics. The aim of this literature review is to identify the advantages and limitations between non-polarized, cross-polarized and also contact and non-contact techniques. This research confirms that there are similarities, as well as differences, in the visualization of lesions between non-polarized and cross-polarized dermoscopy. Non-polarized dermoscopy reveals superficial features and polarized dermoscopy shows deeper structures, concluding that the use of both methods can provide complementary information.
