While visual examination by a dermatologist is helpful, it is often not enough to determine whether a skin lesion is cancerous or not. In this video, Dr. Colin Hong explains why a biopsy is considered the gold standard and what alternatives exist.
Physical exams, dermatoscope evaluations, and monitoring the lesion over time can provide clues, but none can confirm a diagnosis with certainty. A biopsy is the most reliable and definitive way to determine whether a lesion is benign, precancerous, or malignant. When in doubt, a biopsy prevents delays in diagnosis and ensures the safest treatment plan.
This video helps patients understand why biopsies are recommended and why early confirmation is essential for skin cancer management.
