What you’ll learn

Dermoscopy is becoming more widely used as a diagnostic tool for skin lesions. Both cost-effective and recommended by NICE, this technique improves diagnostic accuracy and reduces the need for unnecessary referrals of benign lesions. This course will focus on practical aspects such as clinical lesion recognition and basic dermoscopy principles, making it highly relevant for clinicians involved in the recognition and management of skin lesions.
