Primary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
A well-documented dermoscopic atlas of benign skin growths can aid dermatologists in making faster, more accurate diagnoses, particularly in resource-limited settings where access to histopathology is restricted. Additionally, it can serve as a reference for training clinicians in dermoscopic interpretation, improving overall diagnostic competency.  At the end of the study (After 2 years)

Brief Summary   RESEARCH QUESTION
Does dermoscopy aid in the diagnosis of Benign Skin Growths?

AIM
To examine and document the Dermoscopic features and correlate with Clinical examination findings in Benign Skin Growths 

OBJECTIVES
1. To study the clinical features of Benign Skin Growths
2. To perform the Dermoscopic assessment of Benign Skin Growths
3. To evaluate the Clinico-Dermoscopic Correlation of Benign Skin Growths

MATERIALS AND METHODOLOGY

Study Design - 2-year Observational Analytical Study 
Study population - OPD patients in AVBRH with clinical features suggestive of Benign Skin Growths
Place of study - Out-patient department of Dermatology Venereology and Leprosy.
Sample size - 125

1. Selection of 125 or more patients that present to the DVL OPD with clinical features suggestive of Benign Skin Growth
2. Explanation of the process and obtaining of written informed consent for the study.
3. Collection of demographic data, detailed history taking, thorough cutaneous examination and clinical pictures of the lesions.
4. Arriving at a provisional diagnosis through Clinical examination.
5. Dermoscopic examination, collection of Dermoscopic pictures of the same lesion and arriving at a final diagnosis. (Patients with Dermoscopy suggestive of malignancy will be rejected and treated appropriately)
6. Correlate, the Clinical findings with the Dermoscopic findings and the provisional and the final diagnosis made from the two.

OUTCOME
A well-documented dermoscopic atlas of benign skin growths can aid dermatologists in making faster, more accurate diagnoses, particularly in resource-limited settings where access to histopathology is restricted. Additionally, it can serve as a reference for training clinicians in dermoscopic interpretation, improving overall diagnostic competency.
