A new study from the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center has developed an expert consensus statement on proficiency standards for primary care providers (PCPs) learning or using dermoscopy, a noninvasive skin visualization technique, for skin cancer detection. The study used a modified Delphi method to develop two proficiency standards, resulting in a final consensus-based list of 39 dermoscopic diagnoses and associated features. This consensus statement will inform the development of PCP-targeted dermoscopy training initiatives to support early cancer detection. The research was supported by the Lyda Hill Foundation and has been peer-reviewed. [Extracted from the article] |
