World Dermoscopy Day Saturday 11th May 2024

I an glad to announce that there will be a World Day of Dermoscopy run by the International Dermoscopy Society in partnership with various other non-invasive world skin diagnostics bodies on Saturday 11th May. Top world speakers will address a wide range of subjects, and thanks to our sponsors it will be free of charge to health practitioners who register. Details Here.

I am honoured to have been asked to give a presentation on the dermoscopy on non-pigmented benign skin lesions. The scientific committee is led by such luminaries as Professor Giuseppe Argenziano of Italy and Professor Aimilios Lallas of Greece, Professor Awatef Kelati of Morocco is scientific organiser, and speakers of the highest quality from around the world will be teaching.

The full programme isn’t published yet, but the abstract below gives an idea. As you can see, it will not just be about the diagnostics of benign and malignant lesion but also the application of dermoscopy to other cutaneous problems including issues around varying appearances in skin of diverse colours.

I recommend early booking, the last time the IDS put on a free global meeting like this (to replace the planned regional conference in Warsaw, Poland in 2020 that was cancelled by Covid) it was our most popular meeting ever with 6,000 delegates leading to strain on the broadcasting technology!
