KOH scraping
Subject: KOH scraping

The skin lesion KOH exam is a test to diagnose a fungal infection of the skin.

How the Test is Performed Return to top

The health care provider scrapes the lesion off your skin, using a blunt edge such as the edge of a microscope slide. The scrapings from the skin lesion are placed in liquid containing potassium hydroxide (KOH) and examined under the microscope. KOH destroys all non-fungal cells, which makes it easier to see if there is any fungus present.
