EXPERT INSTRUCTOR

The "Correlation Cases: Conclusion and Open Forum" course combines algorithmic frameworks, interactive case studies, and open discussions to enhance proficiency in dermatopathology and dermoscopy.

This comprehensive course focuses on integrating dermoscopic analysis with histopathological findings to improve diagnostic accuracy. Key topics include:
- Decision Algorithms for Biopsy: Learn to apply algorithmic systems to determine the necessity of biopsies in patients with suspicious lesions. Gain clarity on criteria for cutaneous malignancies.
- Clinical Case Studies: Analyse complex cases involving pigmented lesions using the "chaos and clues" framework. Each case is supported by high-resolution clinical images and histopathology slides for in-depth understanding.
- Differentiating Nevi and Melanomas: Explore tools and indicators for distinguishing melanomas from atypical nevi. Understand familial melanoma risk factors and dysplastic nevus syndromes.
- Histopathology Integration: Review the three major skin divisions and their histological characteristics. Understand the histological correlations of dermoscopic findings, particularly for atypical and invasive melanomas.
- Interactive Discussions: Participate in peer discussions and expert feedback sessions to refine diagnostic approaches. Case discussions are designed to reinforce learning through collaborative analysis and expert-led conclusions.
- Course Summary and Open Forum: Conclude with a summary of key learnings and an open forum for addressing participant questions. The forum encourages sharing real-world challenges and solutions, fostering a collaborative learning environment.

This course provides actionable insights, expert-led discussions, and evidence-based knowledge, empowering participants to make informed decisions in dermatopathology and skin cancer management.
