    Reflectance Confocal Microscopy Terminology in Spanish: A Delphi Consensus Study
    (2024) Abarzua-Araya, A.; Banuls, J.; Cabo, H.; Carrera, C.; Gamo, R.; Gonzalez, S.; Jaimes, N.; Navarrete-Dechent, C.; Anker, J. Perez; Roldan-Marin, R.; Segura, S.; Yelamos, O.; Puig, S.; Malvehy, J.
    The terminology used to describe reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) findings in both melanocytic and nonmelanocytic lesions has been standardized in English. We convened a panel of Spanish-speaking RCM experts and used the Delphi method to seek consensus on which Spanish terms best describe RCM findings in this setting. The experts agreed on 52 terms: 28 for melanocytic lesions and 24 for nonmelanocytic lesions. The resulting terminology will facilitate homogenization, leading to a better understanding of structures, more standardized descriptions in clinical registries, and easier interpretation of clinical reports exchanged between dermatologists.
