A fundamental result in the theory of approximately continuous functions is derived from [[Lusin's theorem]], which states that every measurable function is approximately continuous at almost every point of its ___domain.<ref>{{cite book |last=Saks |first=S. |title=Theory of the integral |publisher=Hafner |year=1952 |isbn= |pages=}}</ref> The concept of approximate continuity can be extended beyond measurable functions to arbitrary functions between metric spaces. The '''Stepanov-Denjoy theorem''' provides a remarkable characterization:
<blockquote>'''Stepanov-Denjoy theorem:''' A function is [[measurable function|measurable]] [[if and only if]] it is approximately continuous [[almost everywhere]].<ref>{{cite book |last=Bruckner |first=A.M. |title=Differentiation of real functions |publisher=Springer |year=1978 |isbn= |pages=}}</ref></blockquote>
Approximately continuous functions are intimately connected to [[Lebesgue point]]s. For a function <math>f \in L^1(E)</math>, a point <math>x_0</math> is a Lebesgue point if it is a point of Lebesgue density 1 for <math>E</math> and satisfies
