General objectives
Dermoscopy is a technique that allows closer visual inspection of the skin which has been used in the assessment and recognition of skin lesions, both benign and malignant. The basic technique can be learned within a few hours and integrated into daily podiatric practice.
For the past two years, I have been training UK podiatrists in dermoscopy by offering a face-to-face lecture programme. However, Australian colleagues have asked where they can get this training from as well. During these unusual times, with little prospect of travelling to Australia at the moment, I am offering a unique opportunity for Australian colleagues to learn dermoscopy live with myself via a web platform.
