Materials and methods. Personalized database of SI «Scientific and Practical Center of Preventive and Clinical Medicine» of government affairs for 2015—2017 years was used. Results and discussion. We have detected a direct correlation (p ≤ 0.05) between AK and a pale pink spot with clear boundaries, surface peeling without ulceration (correlation coefficient 1.0), between SCCis and a lesion up to 1.0 cm in diameter, with clear contours and surface peeling (correlation coefficient 0.91), between cSCC and lesion of congestedpink color with expanded vessels (correlation coefficient 0.97). Other clinical signs did not have reliable correlations with the studied skin pathology. Conclusions.
