Digital image analysis of skin neoplasms evaluated by lectin histochemistry: potential marker to biochemical alterations and tumour differential diagnosis Análise digital de imagens de neoplasias da pele avaliadas pela histoquímica com lectinas: marcador potencial para alterações bioquímicas e diagnóstico diferencial de tumores

The present study aims to evaluate, through lectin histochemistry, the alterations in the expression of cell surface carbohydrate between benign and malignant lesions of skin using computer image analysis. Skin fragments were obtained through biopsies and diagnosed as basal cell carcinoma (BCC), epi...
