Seborrheic Keratosis
Alternate Names : Seborrheic Warts, Verruca Seborrheica, Keratosis Seborrheica
How is the condition diagnosed?
The healthcare provider can diagnose most growths of seborrheic keratosis by careful examination with a bright flashlight and magnifying lens. Some seborrheic keratoses may be very dark and could be confused with melanoma, a type of skin cancer. The provider may take a skin biopsy of these areas to make sure there is no evidence of cancer.
