Which item is not part of the ABCDEs of melanoma?
Elevation
Asymmetry
Border
Diameter
Reveal Answer
Correct Answer:
Elevation
Explanation:
The ABCDE rule helps identify melanoma by focusing on features that signal a lesion may be malignant: Asymmetry (one half doesn’t mirror the other), Border irregularity (edges are uneven or notched), Color variation (multiple colors or uneven color), Diameter (growth beyond about 6 mm), and Evolution (changes over time in size, shape, color, or symptoms). Elevation, while a possible descriptor for how a lesion sits on the skin, isn’t part of the classic ABCDE criteria. In this rule, the E stands for Evolution or evolving, not Elevation. So Elevation is the item that isn’t included in the standard ABCDE checklist.
