There are two basic kinds of medical test results: 1  Tests that give yes or no answers (usually used for diagnostic purposes) 2  Tests that give relative results, as in measuring something to be higher or lower, bigger or smaller than before, or inside or outside a normal range.
[edit on Wikidata] A melanocytic nevus (also known as nevocytic nevus) is a type of lesion that contains nevus cells (a type of melanocyte). Some sources equate the term mole with melanocytic nevus. Other sources reserve the term mole for other purposes.
A dysplastic nevus or atypical mole is a nevus (mole) whose appearance is different from that of common moles.In 1992, the NIH recommended that the term dysplastic nevus be avoided in favor of the term atypical mole.n atypical mole may also be referred to as an atypical melanocytic nevus, atypical nevus, B-K mole, Clark's nevus, dysplastic melanocytic nevus, or nevus with architectural disorder. Dysplastic nevi often grow to larger than ordinary moles, and may have irregular and indistinct borders.
