Description

Join us for the second session in the MTB Final Year Dermatology Series! We will be covering how to:

Identify common malignant skin tumours and explain their assessment, prognosis and management.
Identify common benign and pre-malignant skin lesions and explain their management.

This will help you to distinguish between malignant and benign lesions, which is essential for recognising when an urgent referral to dermatology is required.
