Overview
Mycosis fungoides is primarily diagnosed based on the clinical presentation.
Diagnostic Study of Choice
Mycosi fungoides must be performed when:[1]
- The patient presents with symptomatic progressive skin lesions such as: patches, plaques, tumors, and erytheroderma, and a poorer prognosis in later stages.
- There is no single diagnostic study of choice for the diagnosis of mycosis fungoides, and mycosis fungoides can be diagnosed difficult by nonspecific skin presentation.
- Lesions disease present with skin lesions not treated by useual medication.[1]
- Mycosis fungoides is primarily diagnosed based on the clinical presentation.
Name of Diagnostic Criteria
It is recommended that you include the criteria in a table. Make sure you always cite the source of the content and whether the table has been adapted from another source.

OR
There is no single diagnostic study of choice for [disease name], though [disease name] may be diagnosed based on [name of criteria] established by [...].
OR
The diagnosis of [disease name] is made when at least [number] of the following [number] diagnostic criteria are met: [criterion 1], [criterion 2], [criterion 3], and [criterion 4].
OR
The diagnosis of [disease name] is based on the [criteria name] criteria, which includes [criterion 1], [criterion 2], and [criterion 3].
