Innovative modification of the USB dermatoscope for mucoscopy

There have been a number of technological advancements in dermoscopy of cutaneous lesions1; However, dermoscopy of mucosae remains a challenge, primarily because existing dermatoscopes are not well designed to explore them. Contact magnifying endoscopes and oral mucoscopes have been used in the past for contact and noncontact mucoscopy.2 But the lack of availability and versatility of these instruments and lack of expertise in handling them make them unsuitable for routine use by dermatologists in clinical practice.
