Skin lesions with Dr Lupini 'If your not sure, ask!'
Manage episode 378714693 series 3477533
Richard welcomes back Dr David Lupini who is a GP partner and GPwSI in dermatology. During the episode we discuss the assessment of skin lesions. Dr Lupini discus's how he started to assess skin lesions in primary care without the use of a dermatoscope. We apply the assessment to 3 cases including melanoma , squamous cell carcinoma and basal cell carcinoma. Within the cases we discuss red flags in skin lesions and the correct referral pathway for these patients.
